Select OK to save the changes, Reset to revert to the last saved configuration or Exit to close the
screen.
Select the Settings tab.
Server Id Set numerical server index (1-2) for the authorization server.
Host Specify the IP address or hostname of the TACACS authorization server.
Port Define or edit the port on which the AAA TACACS server listens to traffic. The port range is 1 -
65,535. The default port is 49.
Secret Specify (and Reconfirm) the secret (password) used between the selected AAA TACACS
authorization server and the controller, service platform or Access Point. By default the secret is
displayed as asterisks.
Request Attempts Set the number of connection request attempts to the TACACS server before it times out of the
authorization session. The available range is from 1 - 10. The default is 3.
Request Timeout Specify the time for the re-transmission of request packets after an unsuccessful attempt. The
default is 3 seconds. If the set time is exceeded, the session is terminated.
Retry Timeout Factor Set the scaling of retransmission attempts from 50 - 200 seconds. The timeout at each attempt is
the function of the retry timeout factor and the attempt number. 100 (the default value) implies a
constant timeout on each retry. Smaller values indicate more aggressive (shorter) timeouts. Larger
numbers define more conservative (larger) timeouts on each successive attempt.
