Module: CIENA-CES-TACACS-CLIENT-MIB
OID (symbolic): CIENA-CES-TACACS-CLIENT-MIB::cienaCesTacacsClientKeyMinLen
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.1271.2.3.2.1.1.1.18
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Integer32
Access: read-write
Description: Setting this object defines the minimum length for TACACS secret key.
What is cienaCesTacacsClientKeyMinLen?
This sets the minimum allowed character length, from 2 to 64, that the device will accept when a new TACACS shared secret key is configured. This is a policy-enforcement object rather than a description of the current key itself, so raising it doesn't affect an already-configured key that's shorter than the new minimum; it only takes effect the next time someone tries to set a new key, which could surprise an admin who assumes raising this immediately invalidates a weak, already-in-place secret. For example, setting this to 16 to enforce a stronger-secret policy going forward wouldn't retroactively flag or reject an existing 8-character key already configured, the admin would need to separately rotate that existing key to bring it into compliance.
