Hey guys -

Where are we with role based auth/tacacs+ access?  Have not see anything recent regarding this important missing feature. 

Additionally, what's the deal with editing the config on multiple interfaces at a time?  I have a couple of  3 switch VRF stacks and while I really want to use NetEdit, I don't even bother when I have work to do on those. (I can imagine if there were a 6400 or 8400 with a full complement of ports, that would be torturous).  I mean, I tried, but it's not..  it's a no for me. 

In the CLI, I can
conf t
int 1/1/1-1/1/52
mtu 9128
end

in NetEdit, we'll, you know - I just type mtu 9128, but I do it 52 times. Or 156 on the stacks. 

And one more thing -  when multiple switches are being edited, there has got to be a better way to apply the line to the 1 switch that doesn't have it.

for example- 6 switches in edit config - 1 switch is a recent addition, so it doesn't have the aaa authentication lines. 

That's easy to see that 5/6 of the switches has that line - why can't I just click that and have a bullet or radio button to apply to all, or if there are 4/6 with the config, apply to 1,2,3,4,6?  The point of NE is click and done, but there are several not so clickables still there  

I find myself typing out the lines of config if they are short because the copy doesn't always work and paste sometimes does some illegal line or something. 

Thoughts?  Others with similar issues?  Am I just missing something?
