b. Configure the parameters as needed. They are described

below.

Global Secret
If all of the TACACS+ servers have the same encryption
secret, you can enter the key here. If the servers have
different keys, you must specify each key when you specify
a server’s IP address.

Global Server Timeout
This parameter specifies the maximum amount of time the
switch will wait 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, than the switch will default to the
standard Manager and Operator accounts. The default is
30 seconds. The range is 1 to 30 seconds.
