configure tacacs-accounting shared-secret

configure tacacs-accounting [primary | secondary] shared-secret {encrypted encrypted_secret | secret }

Description

Configures the shared secret string used to communicate with the TACACS+ accounting server.

Syntax Description


primary	Configures the authentication string for the primary TACACS+ accounting server.
secondary	Configures the authentication string for the secondary TACACS+ accounting server.
`string`	The string to be used for authentication.

Default

N/A.

Usage Guidelines

Secret needs to be the same as on the TACACS+ server.

The encrypted keyword is primarily for the output of the show configuration command, so the shared secret is not revealed in the command output. Do not use it to set the shared secret.

Example

The following command configures the shared secret as “tacacsaccount” on the primary TACACS+ accounting server:

configure tacacs-accounting primary shared-secret tacacsaccount
