Configuration notes

SNMP read-only or read-write community strings are always required for SNMP access to the
device.

SNMP access is enabled by default.

If you do not enable Telnet access, you can access the CLI using a serial connection to the
console port. If you do not enable SNMP access, you will not be able to use or SNMP
management applications.

For management access, you must configure authentication-method lists if you want the
device to authenticate access using local user accounts or a RADIUS server. Otherwise, the
device will authenticate using only the locally based password for the Administrator privilege
level.

TACACS and TACACS+

Terminal Access Controller Access Control System Plus (TACACS+) is an enhancement to the
TACACS security protocol. TACACS+ improves on TACACS by separating the functions of
authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) and by encrypting all the traffic between the
Brocade device and the TACACS+ server.
