TACACS+ provides the following services: • Authentication - Provides authentication during login and via user names and user-defined passwords. • Authorization - Performed at login.

The TACACS+ protocol ensures network integrity through encrypted protocol exchanges between the device and TACACS+ server. To open the TACACS+ Settings page, click System→ Management Security→TACACS+ in the tree view. 180 Configuring System Information
