[@veerabsc]

Hello DB Thank you for your video, how can we use chicken of the VNC for Mac this days or do you suggest any alternative? Many thanks 🙏🏽

[@MarkJYule]

I've been using this (tacacsgui+) in GNS3 via VMware workstation since last year. Very easy to setup but now even easier! Thanks AJ :)

[@pmanolak]

Hi David, thanks a lot for your wonderful tutorial. I am grabbing the opportunity to ask you something. Dont know which mac you use, but for those that have Mac with M1/M2, our life is still difficult with GNS3 as Virtualbox still has not released a version that support theses CPUs and we cannot install any linux image (and of course GNS3 VM). Have you got any solution on that? Is there any chance to make a small video about it? Thanks a lot in advance. Best regards, Panagiotis.

[@FaisalKhan-my1jd]

Amazing peace of work!

[@max201143]

thank you for your time. i'm having a rough time with the firefox on the webterm it doesn't open anymore and i don't know what is the problem???

[@quattro4s]

I am using VIRL and don't know how to configure Tacacs and Radius server. Is there a step-by-step configuration available?

[@irondone]

David thanks for this guide

[@Prashanthkadem]

Amazing appliance!! @David, can you prepare a video on the installation of Citrix netscalar gateway in gns3 and also how to integrate it the local machine such that we can open it in the normal chrome/Mozilla just by entering the IP address of it.

[@minorlira3185]

Super useful!!! Amazing video

[@neomatrix3612]

Actually, this thing is sketchy. I spun up the OVA version of this and it's started making https connections to an IP which was located in Russia.

[@waveali5620]

Great channel. I'm learning a lot.

[@syedjahanzaib5000]

I have working TACACS+ server under Ubuntu. Can I install TACACSGUI over existing server? Does TACACSGUI itself a auth server for devices or does it provide just frontend GUI? i see it have different config files. What is the difference between TACACSGUI and TACASC+?

[@anuar.m.y]

for some reason the firefox stops working on the container for web browsing, can we please address this issue? >so if i deploy a new web-VPC then firefox works fine, but then i close the lab for the night and the next day, that same container no longer opens firefox, >upgrade the WM and GNS3 to ver 2.1.11 and now it works fine even after a reboot or the next day, but it stopped working and i dont know why. >also when i was troubleshooting prior to upgrading the software I got an error along the lines of "cannot start firefox as a regular user while on root mode" or something like that. but this only shows up after I restart the lab the next day (basically after a shutdown) while in ver 2.1.6

[@ClearVista]

Is there a way to boost performance of TacacsGUI? Changing between devices and users etc is incredibly slow.

[@ccieccie7192]

mine takes too long to connect to the dashboard.. so i cancelled it.. can't use it.. please help me.. what could be the problem..

[@robertward7013]

Worked out great! Where is part 2?

[@tonnyhermoyo513]

Hi David...you're the man

[@neomatrix3612]

This would be amazing but none of the logging works for it?

[@axi6ne8us]

When I click next after importing the tac_plus.qcow2 file, nothing happens. Should the VM be shut down for the install to proceed?

[@davidbombal]

Click Next and continue through the wizard and see if that works.

[@axi6ne8us]

It was frozen for a bit. Thank you!

[@merkava1988]

Is it the same like FreeRadius?

[@antoinelee9959]

please include this in ur ccna course

[@gdhomy2009]

Love your Videos

[@ahmadfawadfarahmand1107]

Thanks again for your great video! can i assign a static IP for this appliance.

[@ahmedanaswah8840]

it is inherently a Linux machine so all the Linux commands work... drag and drop the appliance into the topology and start it... double click on it and you should see the request for login... username = root password = 1234 once in you will be at the prompt "tacacs:~#" here you can use the following command to manually set the eth0 for an IP and subnet mask: ifconfig eth0 netmask confirm with command "ifconfig" if you need to set a default gateway for the machine to talk to: "route add default gw confirm with command "route" this are just the basics to give your server an Ip of your preference and a gateway... once the machine is pingeable from any network device in the topology... drop the "Firefox31.1.1~2-1" appliance and open a web interface... type the IP of the tacgui server and you will see the prompt for username and password.. before you post a question make sure you explore every avenue available to you, there are many, MANY! docs for Linux reference.. and you can easily look up commands and linux based commands online.. as far as to how to use the server... it is kinda self-explanatory.. create accounts and place devices in groups, experiment and try.. if you mess up then reboot and try again, it is part of the learning curve...

[@Jou685]

Thank you very much.

[@Unconditiona_L_ove]

Awesome!!!!!

[@ben3623]

Thank you so much

[@nirmitdwa1]

Great lab !!

[@Lazharbnlg]
