Symptom

This bug also affects Nexus 5000 as well as Nexus 7000. Scenario 1: When recovering Nexus 7000 configuration using an ASCII backup config some parts of the config using 'source-interface' may fail if they are parsed before the interface configuration. For example: N7K-7010-1(config)# tacacs-server host 172.20.3.1 key 7 "fewhg" N7K-7010-1(config)# aaa group server tacacs+ labserver N7K-7010-1(config-tacacs+)# server 172.20.3.1 N7K-7010-1(config-tacacs+)# source-interface lopback11 ^ Invalid interface format at '^' marker. N7K-7010-1(config-tacacs+)# interface lo11 N7K-7010-1(config-if)# ip address 172.16.1.1/32 N7K-7010-1(config-if)# Scenario 2: TACACS service when sources from SVI which is not defined then gives following error. This can also appear when doing a "copy bootflash: running-configuration" that includes the "ip tacacs source-interface " command. switch# conf t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. switch(config)# ip tacacs source-interface vlan20 ^ Invalid range at '^' marker.

Conditions

Only applies to features that use 'source-interface' configuration and this is in the ASCii config before the interface in question has been defined.

Workaround

First create interface vlan configuration so it parses after it.
