Why I did it
When a user uses TACACS credentials without permissions this causes
show interfaces status
failure, because the chassis is initialized in this case, and without permissions we get the following error:RuntimeError: Unable to connect to redis (unix-socket) - Permission denied(1): Cannot assign requested address
Tested fix on a different image,
Work item tracking
How I did it
Changed path to not use unix socket path
How to verify it
As a TACACS user, try
show interfaces status
the command shouldnt failWhich release branch to backport (provide reason below if selected)
Tested branch (Please provide the tested image version)
