CONFIGURATION
Usage Information
The authentication key must match the key configured on the TACACS+ server. You cannot enter spaces in the key. The show running-configuration output displays both unencrypted and encrypted keys in encrypted format. Configure the global timeout allowed for authentication requests on TACACS+ servers using the tacacs-server timeout command. By default, OS10 times out an authentication attempt on a TACACS+ server after five seconds. The no version of this command removes a TACACS+ server configuration.
Example
OS10(config)# tacacs-server host 1.5.6.4 key secret1
