TACACS as Primary Authentication

The AAA authentication configuration must be present as one of the authentication methods. The following error message is displayed when you atempt to configure AAA authentication without first configuring the local authentication method:

% Error: local authentication not configured

After upgrading to 10.5.1 from an earlier release, there is no change in the AAA authentication configuration when this configuration has the local authentication method configured. After upgrading to 10.5.1 in MX-series platforms, the local authentication method is appended to the authentication list when local authentication is not configured.
