username and password of the incoming user before it can fetch the access class from the server. A user, therefore, at least sees the login prompt. If the access class denies the connection, the system closes the Telnet session immediately. The following example demonstrates how to configure the access-class from a TACACS+ server. This configuration ignores the configured access-class on the VTY line. If you have configured a deny10 ACL on the TACACS+ server, the system downloads it and applies it. If the user is found to be coming from the 10.0.0.0 subnet, the system also immediately closes the Telnet connection. Note, that no matter where the user is coming from, they see the login prompt. When configuring a TACACS+ server host, you can set different communication parameters, such as the key password.

CONFIGURATION mode tacacs-server host {hostname | ip-address} [port port-number] [timeout seconds] [key key] Configure the optional communication parameters for the specific host: - port port-number: the range is from 0 to 65335. Enter a TCP port number. The default is 49. - timeout seconds: the range is from 0 to 1000. Default is 10 seconds. - key key: enter a string for the key. The key can be up to 42 characters long. This key must match a key configured on the TACACS+ server host. This parameter must be the last parameter you configure. If you do not configure these optional parameters, the default global values are applied. Example of Connecting with a TACACS+ Server Host To specify multiple TACACS+ server hosts, configure the tacacs-server host command multiple times. If you configure multiple TACACS+ server hosts, the system attempts to connect with them in the order in which they were configured. Security 927
