Configuring TACACS
You can configure the ATM switch router to use one of three special TCP/IP protocols related to
TACACS: regular TACACS, extended TACACS, or AAA/TACACS+. TACACS services are provided by
and maintained in a database on a TACACS server running on a workstation. You must have access to
and configure a TACACS server before configuring the TACACS features described in this publication
on your Cisco device. Cisco’s basic TACACS support is modeled after the original Defense Data
Network (DDN) application.
A comparative description of the supported versions follows. Ta ble 4-1 compares the versions by
commands.
•TACACS—Provides password checking, authentication, and notification of user actions for security
and accounting purposes.
•Extended TACACS—Provides information about protocol translator and ATM switch router use.
This information is used in UNIX auditing trails and accounting files.
Note The extended TACACS software is available using FTP (refer to the README file in the
ftp.cisco.com directory).
•AAA/TACACS+—Provides more detailed accounting information as well as more administrative
control of authentication and authorization processes.
You can establish TACACS-style password protection on both user and privileged levels of the system
EXEC.
