Basic Configuration
Port Access:
Determines the default Port Access setting for new TACACS users.
The Port Access setting determines which serial ports each account will be
allowed to control. (Defaults; Administrator and SuperUser = All Ports On,
User = All Ports Disabled.)
Notes:
• Administrator and SuperUser level accounts always have access to all ports.
• User level accounts will only have access to the ports that are defined via the
"Port Access" parameter.
• ViewOnly level accounts cannot be granted access to the Serial Ports.
Plug Access:
Determines the default Plug Access setting for new TACACS
users. (Defaults; Administrator and SuperUser = All Plugs On, User = All Plugs
Off, ViewOnly = All Plugs Off.)
Notes:
• Administrator and SuperUser level accounts always have access to all plugs.
• User level accounts will only have access to the plugs that are defined via the
"Plug Access" parameter.
• ViewOnly accounts are not allowed to invoke switching and reboot
commands.
Plug Group Access:
Determines the default Plug Group Access setting for
new TACACS users. For more information on Plug Groups, please refer to
Section 5.6. (Defaults; Administrator and SuperUser = All Plug Groups On,
User = All Plug Groups Off, ViewOnly = All Plug Groups Off.)
Notes:
• In order to use this feature, Plug Groups must first be defined as described in
Section 5.6.
• Administrator and SuperUser level accounts will always have access to all
plug groups.
• User Level accounts will only have access to the plug groups that are
defined via the Plug Group Access parameter.
• ViewOnly accounts are not allowed to invoke switching and reboot
commands.
Service Access:
Selects the default Service Access setting for new TACACS
users. The Service Access setting determines whether each account will be able
to access command mode via Serial Port, Telnet/SSH or Web. For example,
if Telnet/SSH Access is disabled for an account, then the account will not be
able to access command mode via Telnet or SSH. (Default = Serial Port = On,
Telnet/SSH = On, Web = On.)
•
Ping Test:
(Text Interface Only) Allows you to ping IP addresses or domain names
that have been defined via the TACACS Parameters menus in order to check that a
valid IP address or domain name has been entered.
Note:
In order for the Ping Test feature to function, your network and/or firewall
must be configured to allow ping commands.
