Syntax

source-ip{ ip-address interface interface-type interface-number }

undo source-ip

View

Hwtacacs view

Parameter

ip-address: The source IP address of all the TACACS+ packets.

interface-type: Interface type, such as serial.

interface-number: Interface number, including the main interface number and the sub-interface number.

Description

Using the source-ipcommand, you can specify a source IP address for the TACACS+ packets transmitted from the Router. Using undo source-ipcommand, you can disable specifying a source IP address for the TACACS+ packets.

By default, no IP address is specified for transmitting TACACS+ packets

If the same source IP address is specified for all the TACACS+ packets, the TACACS+ server will only need to contact the router using that IP address, instead of registering the IP addresses of all the interfaces that are likely to send TACACS+ packets.

An IP address must be assigned to the specified interface.

Only one source IP address can be configured for a TACACS+ server group, but different source IP addresses can be configured for different groups.

Example

#TACACS+ takes the IP address of the interface Loopback 1 as the source IP address of all the TACACS+ packets.
