Authentication Server Host - D-Link xStack DES-3800 Series User Manual

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.
