administrative control over the authentication and authorization processes. TACACS+ allows for a single access control server (the TACACS+ daemon) to provide authentication, authorization, and accounting services independently. Each service can be tied into its own database to take advantage of other services available on that server or on the network, depending on the capabilities of the daemon. There is a draft RFC detailing this protocol. Further information on configuring remote TACACS+ servers can be found at the following sites:

9.1.3RADIUS authentication

Perform the following procedure to configure the RADIUS authentication method to be used whenever the Console Server or any of its serial ports or hosts is accessed:

Select Serial and Network: Authentication and check RADIUS or LocalRADIUS or RADIUSLocal or RADIUSDownLocal

Enter the Server Address (IP or host name) of the remote Authentication/ Authorization server. Multiple remote servers may be specified in a comma-separated list. Each server is tried in succession

In addition to multiple remote servers, you can also enter for separate lists of Authentication/Authorization servers and Accounting servers. If no Accounting servers are specified, the Authentication/Authorization servers are used instead

Enter the Server Password

Click Apply. RADIUS remote authentication will now be used for all user access to Console Server and serially or network attached devices

RADIUS The Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) protocol was developed by Livingston Enterprises as an access server authentication and accounting protocol. The RADIUS server can support a variety of methods to authenticate a user. When it is provided with the username and original password given by the user, it can support PPP, PAP or CHAP, UNIX
