secondary authentication (HWTACACS scheme view)
Use secondary authentication to specify a secondary HWTACACS authentication server.
Use undo secondary authentication to remove a secondary HWTACACS authentication server.
Syntax
secondary authentication { ipv4-address | ipv6 ipv6-address } [ port-number I key { cipher | simple }
string | single-connection | vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ] *
undo secondary authentication [ { ipv4-address | ipv6 ipv6-address } [ port-number | vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name ]* ]
Default
No secondary HWTACACS authentication server is specified.

Parameters
ipv4-address: Specifies the IPv4 address of the secondary HWTACACS authentication server.
ipv6 ipv6-address: Specifies the IPv6 address of the secondary HWTACACS authentication server.
port-number: Specifies the service port number of the secondary HWTACACS authentication server. The
value range for the TCP port number is 1 to 65535, and the default setting is 49.
key { cipher | simple } string: Sets the shared key for secure communication with the secondary
HWTACACS authentication server.
• cipher string: Sets a ciphertext shared key. The string argument is case sensitive.
{ In non-FIPS mode, the key is a string of 1 to 373 characters.
{ In FIPS mode, the key is a string of 15 to 373 characters.
• simple string: Sets a plaintext shared key. The string argument is case sensitive.
{ In non-FIPS mode, the key is a string of 1 to 255 characters.
{ In FIPS mode, the key is a string of 15 to 255 characters. The string must contain digits,
uppercase letters, lowercase letters, and special characters.
single-connection: The device and the secondary HWTACACS authentication server use the same TCP
connection to exchange all authentication packets for all users. If you do not specify this keyword, the
device establishes a new TCP connection each time it exchanges authentication packets with the
secondary authentication server for a user. If the HWTACACS server supports the single-connection
method, HP recommends that you specify this keyword to reduce TCP connections for improving system
performance.
vpn-instance vpn-instance-name: Specifies the MPLS L3VPN to which the secondary HWTACACS
authentication server belongs, where vpn-instance-name is a case-sensitive string of 1 to 31 characters.
If the server is on the public network, do not specify this option.
Usage guidelines
Make sure that the port number and shared key settings of each secondary HWTACACS authentication
server are the same as those configured on the corresponding server.
