TACACS+ controls user access to devices and network resources while providing separate
accounting, authentication, and authorization services. Some of the services provided by TACACS+
are:

Authorizing each command with the TACACS+ server before execution

Accounting each session’s logon and log off event

Authenticating each user with the TACACS+ server before enabling access to network
resources.

NOTE

For the rest of this section, the term TACACS will be used instead of TACACS+.

To define unique AAA TACACS configurations:

1. Select the Configuration tab from the Web UI.

2. Select Network.

3. Select AAA TACACS Policy to display a high level display of existing AAA policies.

The Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) TACACS screen lists existing AAA policies.
Any of these policies can be selected and applied to the access point.
