Configuring RADIUS/TACACS Logon Authentication
You can configure this switch to authenticate users logging into the system
for management access using local, RADIUS, or authentication
methods.
RADIUS and are logon authentication protocols that use
software running on a central server to control access to RADIUS-aware
or -aware devices on the network. An authentication server
contains a database of multiple user name, password pairs with associated
privilege levels for each user that requires management access to a switch.
Like RADIUS, Terminal Access Controller Access Control System Plus
() is a system that uses a central server to control authentication
for access to switches on the network.
RADIUS uses UDP while uses TCP. UDP only offers best
effort delivery, while TCP offers a connection-oriented transport. Also,
note that RADIUS encrypts only the password in the access-request
packet from the client to the server, while encrypts the entire
body of the packet.
Command Usage
•
By default, management access is always checked against the
authentication database stored on the local switch. If a remote
authentication server is used, you must specify the authentication
sequence and the corresponding parameters for the remote
authentication protocol.
