Updating the Server

You can configure the switch to send accounting information to the TACACS+ server. There are two
options:
•
•

Suppressing Accounting

You can configure the system to suppress accounting when an unknown user with no username accesses
the switch by using the set accounting suppress null-username enable command.
Note RADIUS and TACACS+ accounting are the same, except that RADIUS does not do command
accounting, periodic updates, or allow null-username suppression.

Configuring Accounting

The following sections describe how to configure accounting for both TACACS+ and RADIUS.
