Authentication Server Host

This window will set user-defined Authentication Server Hosts for the TACACS / XTACACS / TACACS+ / RADIUS
security protocols on the Switch. When a user attempts to access the Switch with Authentication Policy enabled, the
Switch will send authentication packets to a remote TACACS / XTACACS / TACACS+ / RADIUS server host on a
remote host. The TACACS / XTACACS / TACACS+ / RADIUS server host will then verify or deny the request and return
the appropriate message to the Switch. More than one authentication protocol can be run on the same physical server host
but, remember that TACACS / XTACACS / TACACS+ / RADIUS are separate entities and are not compatible with each
other. The maximum supported number of server hosts is 16.

To add an Authentication Server Host, click the Add button, revealing the following window:
NOTE: The user must configure Authentication Server Hosts using the
Authentication Server Hosts window before adding hosts to the list.
Authentication Server Hosts must be configured for their specific protocol
on a remote centralized server before this function can work properly.
NOTE: The three built in server groups can only have server hosts running
the same TACACS daemon. TACACS/XTACACS/TACACS+ protocols are
separate entities and are not compatible with each other.
