Setting The Shared Key For Hwtacacs Packets; Configuring Attributes Related To The Data Sent To Hwtacacs Server - HP 4800G Series Configuration Manual

It is recommended to specify only the primary HWTACACS accounting server if backup is not
required.
If both the primary and secondary accounting servers are specified, the secondary one is used
when the primary one is not reachable.
The IP addresses of the primary and secondary accounting servers cannot be the same. Otherwise,
the configuration fails.
You can remove an accounting server only when no active TCP connection for sending accounting
packets is using it.
Currently, HWTACACS does not support keeping accounts on FTP users.

Setting the Shared Key for HWTACACS Packets

When using a HWTACACS server as an AAA server, you can set a key to secure the communications
between the device and the HWTACACS server.
The HWTACACS client and HWTACACS server use the MD5 algorithm to encrypt packets exchanged
between them and a shared key to verify the packets. Only when the same key is used can they
properly receive the packets and make responses.
Follow these steps to set the shared key for HWTACACS packets:
To do...
Enter system view
Create a HWTACACS scheme
and enter HWTACACS scheme
view
Set the shared keys for
HWTACACS authentication,
authorization, and accounting
packets
