ONFIGURATION
Pay attention to the following when configuring a TACACS server:
■
HWTACACS server does not check whether a scheme is being used by users when
changing most of HWTACACS attributes, unless you delete the scheme.
■
By default, the TACACS server has no key.
In the above configuration tasks, creating HWTACACS scheme and configuring
TACACS authentication/authorization server are required; all other tasks are optional
and you can determine whether to perform these configurations as needed.
Creating a HWTACAS
Scheme
As afore mentioned, HWTACACS protocol is configured scheme by scheme.
Therefore, you must create a HWTACACS scheme and enter HWTACACS view before
you perform other configuration tasks.
Perform the following configuration in system view.
By default, no HWTACACS scheme exists.
If the HWTACACS scheme you specify does not exist, the system creates it and enters
HWTACACS view.
The system supports up to 16 HWTACACS schemes. You can only delete the schemes
that are not being used.
