Configuring Command Accounting
Command accounting allows the HWTACACS server to record all commands executed on the device
regardless of the command execution result. This helps control and monitor the user operations on the
device.
If command accounting is enabled and command authorization is not enabled, every executed
command will be recorded on the HWTACACS server. If both command accounting and command
authorization are enabled, only the authorized and executed commands will be recorded on the
HWTACACS server.
The command accounting configuration involves two steps:
1) Enable command accounting. See the following table for details.
2) Configure a command accounting scheme. Specify the IP address and other related parameters
for the accounting server. For details, refer to the
AAA Configuration
in the
Security Volume
.
