Messages Related to
Operation
The switch generates the CLI messages listed below. However, you may see
other messages generated in your server application. For informa
tion on such messages, refer to the documentation you received with the
application.
CLI Message
Meaning
Connecting to Tacacs server The switch is attempting to contact the server identified in the switch’s
tacacs
server
configuration as the
first-choice
(or only) server.
Connecting to secondary
Tacacs server
The switch was not able to contact the
first-choice
server, and is now
attempting to contact the next (secondary) server identified in the switch’s
tacacs-server
configuration.
Invalid password
The system does not recognize the username or the password or both. Depending on the
authentication method (
tacacs
or
local
), either the server application did not
recognize the username/password pair or the username/password pair did not match the
username/password pair configured in the switch.
No Tacacs servers
responding
The switch has not been able to contact any designated servers. If this message
is followed by the
Username
prompt, the switch is attempting local authentication.
Not legal combination of
authentication methods
For console access,
if you select
tacacs
as the primary authentication method, you must
select
local
as the secondary authentication method. This prevents you from being locked
out of the switch if all designated servers are inaccessible to the switch.
Record already exists
When resulting from a
tacacs-server host
<
ip addr
> command, indicates an attempt to
enter a duplicate server IP address.
