encrypts the entire body of the packet.

• RADIUS and TACACS+ logon authentication assigns a specific

privilege level for each user name and password pair. The user name,
password, and privilege level must be configured on the authentication
server.

• You can specify three authentication methods in a single command to

indicate the authentication sequence. For example, if you enter
authentication login radius tacacs local,” the user name and
password on the RADIUS server is verified first. If the RADIUS
server is not available, then authentication is attempted on the
TACACS+ server. If the TACACS+ server is not available, the local
user name and password is checked.
