TACACS and TACACS+
show snmp user
Syntax: show snmp user
This command displays the definition of local and remote SNMP user accounts, as shown in the
following example.
Configuration notes
• SNMP read-only or read-write community strings are always required for SNMP access to the
device.
• SNMP access is enabled by default.
• If you do not enable Telnet access, you can access the CLI using a serial connection to the
console port. If you do not enable SNMP access, you will not be able to use or SNMP
management applications.
• For management access, you must configure authentication-method lists if you want the
device to authenticate access using local user accounts or a RADIUS server. Otherwise, the
device will authenticate using only the locally based password for the Administrator privilege
level.
TACACS and TACACS+
Terminal Access Controller Access Control System Plus (TACACS+) is an enhancement to the
TACACS security protocol. TACACS+ improves on TACACS by separating the functions of
authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) and by encrypting all the traffic between the
Brocade device and the TACACS+ server.
TACACS+ show commands
show tacacs-server
Syntax: show tacacs-server
This command displays information about all TACACS+ servers configured on the device.
