closes the Telnet session immediately. The following example demonstrates how to congure the access-class from a TACACS+ server.
This conguration ignores the congured access-class on the VTY line. If you have congured a deny10 ACL on the TACACS+ server, the
system downloads it and applies it. If the user is found to be coming from the 10.0.0.0 subnet, the system also immediately closes the Telnet
connection. Note, that no matter where the user is coming from, they see the login prompt.
When conguring a TACACS+ server host, you can set dierent communication parameters, such as the key password.
Example of Specifying a TACACS+ Server Host
Dell(conf)#
Dell(conf)#aaa authentication login tacacsmethod tacacs+
Dell(conf)#aaa authentication exec tacacsauthorization tacacs+
Dell(conf)#tacacs-server host 25.1.1.2 key Force
Dell(conf)#
Dell(conf)#line vty 0 9
Dell(config-line-vty)#login authentication tacacsmethod
Dell(config-line-vty)#end
Specifying a TACACS+ Server Host
To specify a TACACS+ server host and congure its communication parameters, use the following command.
• Enter the host name or IP address of the TACACS+ server host.
CONFIGURATION mode
tacacs-server host {hostname | ip-address} [port port-number] [timeout seconds] [key key]
Congure the optional communication parameters for the specic host:
• port port-number: the range is from 0 to 65535. Enter a TCP port number. The default is 49.
• timeout seconds: the range is from 0 to 1000. Default is 10 seconds.
• key key: enter a string for the key. The key can be up to 42 characters long. This key must match a key congured on the
TACACS+ server host. This parameter must be the last parameter you congure.
If you do not congure these optional parameters, the default global values are applied.
Example of Connecting with a TACACS+ Server Host
To specify multiple TACACS+ server hosts, congure the tacacs-server host command multiple times. If you congure multiple
TACACS+ server hosts, Dell Networking OS attempts to connect with them in the order in which they were congured.
To view the TACACS+ conguration, use the show running-config tacacs+ command in EXEC Privilege mode.
To delete a TACACS+ server host, use the no tacacs-server host {hostname | ip-address} command.

Command Authorization
The AAA command authorization feature congures Dell Networking OS to send each conguration command to a TACACS server for
authorization before it is added to the running conguration.
By default, the AAA authorization commands congure the system to check both EXEC mode and CONFIGURATION mode commands.
Use the no aaa authorization config-commands command to enable only EXEC mode command checking.
