Test usage

anta get tests --test VerifyTacacsSourceIntf

You can filter tests by providing a prefix - ANTA will return all tests that start with your specified string.

anta get tests --test VerifyTacacs

anta.tests.aaa:
  - VerifyTacacsServerGroups:
      # Verifies if the provided TACACS server group(s) are configured.
      groups:
        - TACACS-GROUP1
        - TACACS-GROUP2
  - VerifyTacacsServers:
      # Verifies TACACS servers are configured for a specified VRF.
      servers:
        - 10.10.10.21
        - 10.10.10.22
      vrf: MGMT
  - VerifyTacacsSourceIntf:
      # Verifies TACACS source-interface for a specified VRF.
