TACACS+ Settings

The device provide Terminal Access Controller Access Control System (TACACS+) client support.
TACACS+ provides centralized security for validation of users accessing the device.
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. Once 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.
The TACACS+ Settings page contains both user-defined and the default TACACS+ settings for the
inband management port.
To display the TACACS+ Settings page, click System > Management Security > TACACS+ in the
tree view.
