TACACS+ Authentication

Configuring TACACS+ on the Switch

To delete a per-server encryption key in the switch, re-enter the tacacs-server host command without the key parameter. For example, if you have north01 configured as the encryption key for a TACACS+ server with an IP address of 10.28.227.104 and you want to eliminate the key, you would use this command:

ProCurve(config)# tacacs-server host 10.28.227.104

You can save the encryption key in a configuration file by entering this command:

Procurve(config)# tacacs-server key <keystring>

The <keystring> parameter is the encryption key in clear text.

The show tacacs command lists the global encryption key, if configured. However, to view any configured per-server encryption keys, you must use show config or show config running (if you have made TACACS+ configuration changes without executing write mem).

Configuring the Timeout Period. The timeout period specifies how long the switch waits for a response to an authentication request from a TACACS+ server before either sending a new request to the next server in the switch’s Server IP Address list or using the local authentication option. For example, to change the timeout period from 5 seconds (the default) to 3 seconds:

ProCurve(config)# tacacs-server timeout 3
