Creating an HWTACACS scheme

The HWTACACS protocol is configured on a per scheme basis. Before you perform other HWTACACS

configurations, create an HWTACACS scheme and enter HWTACACS scheme view. You can configure

up to 16 HWTACACS schemes.

To create an HWTACACS scheme and enter HWTACACS scheme view:

Not defined by default.

You can delete an HWTACACS scheme only when it is not referenced.

Specifying the HWTACACS authentication servers

You can specify one primary authentication server and one secondary authentication server for an

HWTACACS scheme. When the primary server is not available, the secondary server is used. In a

scenario where redundancy is not required, specify only the primary server.

An HWTACACS server can function as the primary authentication server of one scheme and as the

secondary authentication server of another scheme at the same time. You cannot specify the same IP

address as both the primary and the secondary authentication servers in a scheme.
