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.
