Configuring authentication-method lists for
TACACS and TACACS+
TACACS and TACACS+
You can use TACACS/TACACS+ to authenticate Telnet/SSH access and access to Privileged EXEC
level and CONFIG levels of the CLI. When configuring TACACS/TACACS+ authentication, you create
authentication-method lists specifically for these access methods, specifying TACACS/TACACS+ as
the primary authentication method.
level and CONFIG levels of the CLI. When configuring TACACS/TACACS+ authentication, you create
authentication-method lists specifically for these access methods, specifying TACACS/TACACS+ as
the primary authentication method.
Within the authentication-method list, TACACS/TACACS+ is specified as the primary authentication
method and up to six backup authentication methods are specified as alternates. If
TACACS/TACACS+ authentication fails due to an error, the device tries the backup authentication
methods in the order they appear in the list.

The method1 parameter specifies the primary authentication method. The remaining optional
method parameters specify additional methods to try if an error occurs with the primary method. A
