Specifying the HWTACACS authentication servers
You can specify one primary authentication server and a maximum of 16 secondary authentication
servers for an HWTACACS scheme. When the primary server is not available, the device searches for
the secondary servers in the order they are configured. The first secondary server in active state is used
for communication.
If redundancy is not required, specify only the primary server. An HWTACACS server can function as the
primary authentication server in one scheme and as the secondary authentication server in another
scheme at the same time.
To specify HWTACACS authentication servers for an HWTACACS scheme:
Step Command Remarks
1. Enter system view. system-view N/A
2. Enter HWTACACS
scheme view.
hwtacacs scheme hwtacacs-scheme-name N/A
3. Specify HWTACACS
authentication servers.
• Specify the primary HWTACACS
authentication server:
primary authentication { host-name |
ipv4-address | ipv6 ipv6-address }
[ port-number | key { cipher | simple }
string | single-connection ] *
• Specify a secondary HWTACACS
authentication server:
secondary authentication { host-name
| ipv4-address | ipv6 ipv6-address }
[ port-number | key { cipher | simple }
string | single-connection] *
Configure at least one command.
By default, no authentication
server is specified.
Two HWTACACS authentication
servers in a scheme, primary or
secondary, cannot have the same
combination of hostname, IP
address, and port number.
Specifying the HWTACACS authorization servers
You can specify one primary authorization server and a maximum of 16 secondary authorization servers
for an HWTACACS scheme. When the primary server is not available, the device searches for the
secondary servers in the order they are configured. The first secondary server in active state is used for
communication.
If redundancy is not required, specify only the primary server. An HWTACACS server can function as the
primary authorization server of one scheme and as the secondary authorization server of another
scheme at the same time.
To specify HWTACACS authorization servers for an HWTACACS scheme:
Step Command Remarks

2. Enter HWTACACS
scheme view.
