Configuring the Shared Secret Password for TACACS+ Accounting Servers

The shared secret is a password that is configured on each network device and TACACS+ accounting server. The shared secret is used to verify communication between network devices and the server.
To configure the shared secret for client communications with TACACS+ accounting servers, use the following command:
configure tacacs-accounting [primary | secondary] shared-secret {encrypted} string

To configure the primary TACACS+ accounting server, specify primary. To configure the secondary TACACS+ accounting server, specify secondary.

Do not use the encrypted keyword to set the shared secret. The encrypted keyword prevents the display of the shared secret in the show configuration command output.
