TACACS provides the following services: • Authentication. Provides authentication during login and through user names and user-defined passwords. • Authorization. Performed at login. When the authentication session is completed, an authorization session starts using the authenticated user name. The TACACS server checks the user privileges. The TACACS protocol ensures network security through encrypted protocol exchanges between the device and TACACS server. Manage Switch Security 511 User Manual
