Problem rebooting/shutting down firewalls through Panorama

FredrikNorlander — Wed, 02 Aug 2017 09:36:14 GMT

We are running Panorama 8.0.4 with TACACS for authentication.

I have noticed that when I switch to the context for a device, or Panorama itself, the options for rebooting/shutting down a device are missing.

If I navigate to Device->Setup->Operations, the only options available are for manipulating the configuration.

I have checked and the admin role for the admins have all relevant options enabled, so I don't think it's a permission issue.
Rebooting using CLI, or using the built-in Panorama admin account works as expected.

Has anyone else encountered this?

@FredrikNorlander,

Do you have any additional administration limitations on your adminsitration account. Someone could have restricted your rights within the GUI but given you access to that function through the CLI. That's the only thing outside of a bug that would explain the situation you've run into.

Hm, no, I can't see any other limitations set on my account (or rather the role specified from TACACS).

I guess I'll open a case to determine whether or not this actually is a bug.
