Hello

F5 is authenticating users via tacacs, on that server there's assignment for specific user a role 'manager'

When that user logs in via ssh to f5 he has only nano editor, (list cli preference editor - shows nano), he can't change it to vi. Is it possible to change default editor for role 'manager' to editor vi by using account with admin priviliges, if yes how to achieve that ?

If your user requires higher privileges, you need to create a Remote Role Group object that maps the desired privilege level to a user group on your TACACS server which includes said user.

In order to get vi editor, you need to elevate your access from role manager to admin.
