Enabling TACACS+ Authorization for Serial Ports

Using an authorization method in addition to authentication provides an extra level of
system security. By enabling the raccess parameter, administrators require an additional
level of security checking. After each user is successfully authenticated through the
standard login procedure, the ACS uses TACACS+ to authorize whether or not each user
is allowed to access specific serial ports.
By default the raccess parameter is not enabled allowing all users full authorization.
When the raccess parameter is enabled, users are denied access unless they have the
proper authorization, which must be set on the TACACS+ server itself.

Configuring Authorization with a TACACS+ Server [CLI]

Step 1 - In CLI mode, enter the following string:
config > security > authentication> tacplusraccess yes
Step 2 - To save the configuration, enter the command:
