User level security is an authentication process between a specific user and a device. The
authentication process is interactive; users connect to a terminal server and need to interact with it
in order to communicate with other devices beyond the server. The CyberSWITCH supports user
level security through the RADIUS, TACACS, or ACE Server.

This chapter provides information for enabling an off-node user level database. Refer to the chapter

Configuring Off-node Server Information

for configuration instructions for specific servers.
