Enabling SNMP to configure TACACS/TACACS

TACACS is disabled by default. To enable SNMP access to TACACS MIB objects on the device, enter
the following command.
BigIron RX(config)#enable snmp config-tacacs
Syntax: [no] enable snmp <config-radius | config-tacacs>
The <config-radius> parameter specifies the RADIUS configuration mode. Radius is disabled by
default.
The <config-tacacs> parameter specifies the TACACS configuration mode. TACACS is disabled by
default.

Identifying the TACACS/TACACS+ servers

To use TACACS/TACACS+ servers to authenticate access to a device, you must identify the servers
to the device.
For example, to identify three TACACS/TACACS+ servers, enter commands such as the following.
BigIron RX(config)# tacacs-server host 207.94.6.161
BigIron RX(config)# tacacs-server host 207.94.6.191
BigIron RX(config)# tacacs-server host 207.94.6.122
Syntax: tacacs-server host <ip-addr> |<hostname> [auth-port <number>]
The <ip-addr> |<hostname> parameter specifies the IP address or host name of the server. You
can enter up to eight tacacs-server host commands to specify up to eight different servers.
NOTE
To specify the server's host name instead of its IP address, you must first identify a DNS server using
the ip dns server-address <ip-addr> command at the global CONFIG level.
If you add multiple TACACS/TACACS+ authentication servers to the device, the device tries to reach
them in the order you add them. For example, if you add three servers in the following order, the
software tries the servers in the same order.
1. 207.94.6.161
2. 207.94.6.191
3. 207.94.6.122
You can remove a TACACS/TACACS+ server by entering no followed by the tacacs-server command.
For example, to remove 207.94.6.161, enter the following command.
BigIron RX(config)# no tacacs-server host 207.94.6.161
