TACACS+ Commands

TACACS+ provides access control for networked devices via one or more centralized

servers. Similar to RADIUS, this protocol simplifies authentication by making use of a

single database that can be shared by many clients on a large network. TACACS+ is

based on the TACACS protocol (described in RFC1492) but additionally provides for

separate authentication, authorization, and accounting services. The original protocol

was UDP based with messages passed in clear text over the network; TACACS+ uses

TCP to ensure reliable delivery and a shared key configured on the client and daemon

server to encrypt all messages.
