I have 500 routers. Right now we are using local accounts set up on each
router to let our admins log into the routers. Whenever an admin leaves, we
have to go around to 500 routers and delete that username and add the new
guy.

Is it possible to set up a router to use AAA authentication to a Radius
server to authenticate telnet access?

That way I just take the ex-employee out of the radius group and he no
longer can get into our routers.

If this is possible, would someone be so kind as to point me to a sample
config. I am having a hell of a time finding anything on cisco.com.

Thank you

Sure. RADIUS or TACACS+..

Shouldn't be too hard to find, its been part of IOS for quite some time.

Here's a link to the basics in 12.2 documentation.

You could use Radius but I would use TACACS+. First RADIUS is clear

text so you could have someone actually get your password if they are
sniffing the datastream. I really do not like Cisco software, I
REALLY like Cisco ACS. You can also set it up to use your windows
domain to authenticate to. You can do SSOOO MUCH with Cisco ACS!
Hear is a simple RADIUS config.

aaa new-model
!
aaa authentication login default group radius local
! Always config a fallback in case you cant get to the AAA server
radius-server host 172.22.53.201 auth-port 1645 acct-port 1646 key
cisco
! Some IOSes want you to put the key on a seperate line

This will just get you logged in there are the two other A's
(authorization, and accounting) that you may also configure.
