Versions

1.13

  • Added support for parsing of "long pairs" sent by Cisco ASR devices.

1.12

  • Added support for attributes with comma-separated values. Currently this only applies to the JUNOS "user-permssions" attribute. This is a stop-gap fix as we prepare version 2.0!
  • Improved debug logging slightly to help visualize return_pairs and modified a/v pairs using the "av_pairs" config option.

1.11

  • Python 3 compatibility.
  • NSS Group support. Add group _nss to your default user to get NSS groups for users (Python 3 required).

1.10

  • Bugfix in config parser to properly report when file can't be found.
  • Option-parsing converted to use Python's optparse module.
  • Usage docs cleaned up and only displayed when --docs flag is passed.
  • LICENSE (GPLv3) file added to project root.
  • Change history moved to CHANGELOG.rst.
  • Wanted/desired features added to TODO.rst.

1.93.2

  • Default log destination to /dev/null unless -l is passed.

1.93.1

  • Replace all instances of log_file.write with a log object
  • Remove all references to log_file within the code
  • Read DEBUG environment variable to toggle debug logging
  • A few minor syntax cleanup changes to improve readability
  • A few minor line-spacing/formatting changes to improve readability
  • Extra commenting added here and there to improve readability

1.92

  • Catch exception on failed config.read() for backwards-compatibility w/ Python 2.4.

1.91

  • Error out on no "default service = permit"
  • Option to hard code return value (for Procurve)

1.9

  • Better Nexus Support
  • Only send roles to Nexus
  • Better av pair replacement

1.8

  • Nexus support (tac_pair format different)

Usage

Easier TACACS Configurations with do_auth:

http://tacacs.org/2009/09/26/easy-tacacs-control-with-do_auth/

Example line to put in tacplus user or group:

after authorization “/root/doauth.py -i $address -u $user -d $name -l /root/log.txt -f /root/do_auth.ini” (that’s all ONE line)

tac_plus.conf

First, a starting tac_plus.conf file. Which, we’ll never have to edit again:

# My simple tacplus config that never needs to change
key = mykey

accounting file = /var/log/tacplus.acct

default authentication = file /etc/passwd

user = DEFAULT {
    member = doauthaccess
}

group = doauthaccess {
    default service = permit

    service = exec {
        priv-lvl = 15
        idletime = 10
    }

    enable = file /etc/passwd
    after authorization "/usr/bin/python /root/doauth.pyc -i $address -u $user -d $name -l /root/log.txt -f /root/do_auth.ini"
}

do_auth.ini

Now, we add homer and give him access to some show commands. First, we do a adduser homer on Linux to add the user. This way, when the user wants to change is password, he can any time he wants to with passwd. Next, we edit the do_auth.ini file:

[users]
homer =
    fewcommands

[fewcommands]
host_allow =
    .*
device_permit =
    .*
command_permit =
    show users
    show int.*
    show ip int.*
    show controllers.*

To add an admin user it's even easier:

admin =
    adminuser

[adminuser]
host_allow =
    .*
device_permit =
    .*
command_permit =
    .*

So our final config is:

[users]
homer =
    fewcommands
admin =
    adminuser

[fewcommands]
host_allow =
    .*
device_permit =
    .*
command_permit =
    show users
    show int.*
    show ip int.*
    show controllers.*

[adminuser]
host_allow =
    .*
device_permit =
    .*
command_permit =
    .*

Wouldn’t it be nice to just do an adduser and be done without any config modification? All we need is a default user. In our example above we would change to this:

[users]
default =
    fewcommands

Multiple Groups

Users may be in multiple groups.

http://tacacs.org/2009/05/08/granular-tacacs-control/

Configuration is fairly simple; as an example, let’s say I wanted to have user Homer have full access to 192.168.1.1 and 10.1.1.0/24, but only do show commands for everything else in 10.0.0.0/8. For the heck of it, let’s say we only want Homer to connect from 192.168.1.0/24, but never 192.168.1.4, which host can only do the show commands. The config file would simply be as follows:

[users]
homer =
    simpsongroup
    televisiongroup

[simpsongroup]
host_deny =
    192.168.1.4
host_allow =
    192.168.1.*
device_permit =
    192.168.1.1
    10.1.1.*
command_permit =
    .*

[televisiongroup]
host_allow =
    192.168.1.*
device_permit =
    10.*
command_permit =
    show.*

Custom AV Pairs

One of the long promised features has finally been added, the ability to modify av pairs. Let’s say you have a group which you simply want a user to have enable access to. Simply add this to the group:

av_pairs =
    priv-lvl=1

This assumes you have priv-lvl in your tac_plus.conf. (Like examples previous) Note, of course, you’ll also need to add a command_deny for enable or they’ll just type "en" if they have an enable password. Now, this should open all sorts of opportunities for wlc and roles. For reasons unknown, this does not work. If you have a wlc that you can lab up & wireshark, please contact me on the tac_plus listserv.
