Two servers can be defined to work with TACACS+ functions. One server acts as a backup in case the other one fails. When logging in via telnet or WEBconfig, the user can select the server to be used.
As of LCOS 10.30, TACACS+ supports IPv6. Consequently, the server address can be configured as a DNS name, an IPv4 address, and also as an IPv6 address.
The parameters for configuring the TACACS+ server are to be found under:
Command line:
- Server address
- Address of the TACACS+ server to which requests for authentication, authorization and accounting are to be forwarded.
Possible values:
- Valid DNS resolvable name, or valid IPv4 or IPv6 address.
- Blank
