config authen server_host
Purpose
Used to configure a user-defined authentication server host.
Syntax
config authen server_host <ipaddr> protocol [tacacs | xtacacs
| ] {port <int 1-65535> | key [<key_string 254> | none] |
timeout <int 1-255> | retransmit < 1-255>}
Description
This command will configure a user-defined authentication server
host for the TACACS/XTACACS//RADIUS security
protocols on the switch. When a user attempts to access the switch
with authentication protocol enabled, the switch will send
authentication packets to a remote
TACACS/XTACACS//RADIUS server host on a remote
host. The TACACS/XTACACS//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//RADIUS are separate entities and
are not compatible with each other. The maximum supported
number of server hosts is 16.
Parameters
server_host <ipaddr>
- The IP address of the remote server host
the user wishes to alter.
protocol
– The protocol used by the server host. The user may
choose one of the following:
tacacs
– Enter this parameter if the server host utilizes the
TACACS protocol.
xtacacs
- Enter this parameter if the server host utilizes the
XTACACS protocol.
- Enter this parameter if the server host utilizes
the protocol.
radius
- Enter this parameter if the server host utilizes the
RADIUS protocol.
port <int 1-65535>
Enter a number between 1 and 65535 to define
the virtual port number of the authentication protocol on a server
host. The default port number is 49 for
TACACS/XTACACS/ servers but the user may set a
unique port number for higher security.
key <key_string 254>
- Authentication key to be shared with a
