Enter per-server secret [max 40 characters] ->

Use this prompt to enter the encryption secret for the
TACACS+ server whose IP address you are specifying.

4 - TAC Server Order
You use this selection to indicate the order in which you want
the switch to query the TACACS+ servers for logon
authentication. Of course, you can skip this option if you
specified only one IP address. The default is 1, 2, and 3, in that
order.

5 - TAC Global Secret
If all of the TACACS+ servers have the same encryption secret,
rather then entering the same secret when you enter the IP
addresses, you can use this option to enter the secret just
once.

3 - TAC Timeout
This parameter specifies the maximum amount of time the
switch waits for a response from a TACACS+ server before
assuming the server cannot respond. If the timeout expires
and the server has not responded, the switch queries the next
TACACS+ server in the list. If there aren’t any more servers, the
switch defaults to the standard Manager and Operator
accounts. The default is 30 seconds. The range is 1 to 30
seconds.

select Save Configuration Changes.
