the server maintains user information centrally. In an AAA network, a NAS is a server for users but a
client for the AAA servers, as shown in
Figure 1-1 .

AAA networking diagram
When a user tries to establish a connection to the NAS and to obtain the rights to access other networks
or some network resources, the NAS authenticates the user or the corresponding connection. The NAS
can transparently pass the user’s AAA information to the server (RADIUS server or HWTACACS server).
The RADIUS/HWTACACS protocol defines how a NAS and a server exchange user information
between them.
In the AAA network shown in
Figure 1-1 , there is a RADIUS server and a HWTACACS server. You can
determine the authentication, authorization and accounting methods according to the actual
