Add or edit information for a TACACS+ server in this window.
Enter the IP address or the host name of the server. If the router has not been
configured to use a Domain Name Service (DNS) server, enter an IP address.
Check this box if you want the router to maintain a single open connection to the
TACACS+ server, rather thanopening and closing a TCP connection each time it
communicates with the server. A single open connection is more efficient because
it allows the TACACS+ server to handle a higher number of TACACS+
operations.
This option is supported only if the TACACS+ server is running CiscoSecure
version 1.0.1 or later.
Check this box if you want to override AAA server global settings, and specify a
server-specific timeout value and encryption key.
Timout (seconds)
Enter the number of seconds that the router should attempt to contact this server
before going on to the next server in the group list. If you do not enter a value, the
router will use the value configured in the AAA Servers Global Settings window.
Configure Key
Optional. Enter the key to use to encrypt traffic between the router and this server.
If you do not enter a value, the router will use the value configured in the AAA
Servers Global Settings window.
New Key/Confirm Key
Enter the key and reenter it for confirmation.
