Parameters
accounting: Sets the shared key for secure HWTACACS accounting communication.
authentication: Sets the shared key for secure HWTACACS authentication communication.
authorization: Sets the shared key for secure HWTACACS authorization communication.
cipher: Sets a ciphertext shared key.
simple: Sets a plaintext shared key.
string: Specifies the shared key string. This argument is case sensitive.
In non-FIPS mode:
•
A ciphertext shared key is a string of 1 to 373 characters.
A plaintext shared key is a string of 1 to 255 characters.
In FIPS mode:
•
A ciphertext shared key is a string of 15 to 373 characters.
A plaintext shared key is a string of 15 to 255 characters. The string must contain digits,
uppercase letters, lowercase letters, and special characters.
Usage guidelines
The shared keys configured on the device must match those configured on the HWTACACS servers.
For security purposes, all shared keys, including shared keys configured in plain text, are saved in
ciphertext.
Examples
# Set the shared key for secure HWTACACS authentication communication to 123456TESTauth&! in
plain text for HWTACACS scheme hwt1.
