Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting Debug Commands on Cisco IOS XR Software


This chapter describes the Cisco IOS XR software authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) debug commands.

For high-level, conceptual information about using debug commands generally, see Using Debug Commands on Cisco IOS XR Software, Release 3.5.0.

debug aaa

To display authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) information originating from applications using AAA, use the debug aaa command in EXEC mode. To disable debugging output, use the no form of this command.

debug aaa {accounting | all | authentication | authorization | comm | configuration | detail | task}

no debug aaa {accounting | all | authentication | authorization | comm | configuration | detail | task}

Syntax Description

accounting

Displays accounting debug information from AAA applications.

all

Displays all debug information from AAA applications.

authentication

Displays authentication debug information from AAA applications.

authorization

Displays debug information for AAA authorization.

comm

Displays information related to connections made between the AAA applications and AAA daemon (locald).

configuration

Displays debug information related configuration of AAA parameters.

detail

Displays additional debug information. Use this keyword when other debug commands are not sufficiently helpful.

task

Displays debug information related to task ID processing.

Modification

Release 2.0

This command was introduced on the Cisco CRS-1.

Release 3.0

Release 3.3.0

No modification.

Release 3.4.0

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of the Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.

The information displayed by the debug aaa command accounting keyword is independent of the accounting protocol used to transfer the accounting information to a server.

Use the authentication and authorization keywords to display the authentication and authorization methods in use and the results of these methods.

Debugging output is assigned high priority in the CPU process and, therefore, can affect system performance. For more information about the impact on system performance when using debug commands, refer to Using Debug Commands on Cisco IOS XR Software.


Note To view the debug information about how the system is processing AAA requests, use the debug locald commands.
