Configure TACACS+ Servers
TACACS+ provides a centralized user management system, while still retaining consistency
with RADIUS and other authentication processes. TACACS+ provides the following services:
• Authentication. Provides authentication during login and through user names and
user-defined passwords.
• Authorization. Performed at login. When the authentication session is completed, an
authorization session starts using the authenticated user name. The TACACS+ server
checks the user privileges.
The TACACS+ protocol ensures network security through encrypted protocol exchanges
between the device and TACACS+ server.
From the Security > Management Security > TACACS+ menu, you can access the pages
that are described in the following sections:
• Configure the Global TACACS+ Settings on page 235
• Configure a TACACS+ Server on the Switch on page 236
• Modify the Settings for a TACACS+ Server on the Switch on page 237
• Remove a TACACS+ Server From the Switch on page 238
