Configuring TACACS+ accounting for system events

You can configure TACACS+ accounting to record when system events occur on the Brocade device.
System events include rebooting and when changes to the active configuration are made.
The following command causes an Accounting Start packet to be sent to the TACACS+ accounting
server when a system event occurs, and a Accounting Stop packet to be sent when the system
event is completed.
Brocade(config)# aaa accounting system default start-stop tacacs+
Syntax: aaa accounting system default start-stop radius | tacacs+ | none
Configuring an interface as the source for allTACACS and TACACS+ packets
You can designate the lowest-numbered IP address configured an Ethernet port, loopback
interface, or virtual interface as the source IP address for all TACACS/TACACS+ packets from the
Layer 3 switch. For configuration details, refer to Brocade ICX 6650 Layer 3 Routing Configuration
Guide.
