| reply to wasiim Re: ACS on outside Interface
said by wasiim :thanks for the reply, but i m concern about the fact that what will happen when tacacs will unavailable, i will not able to login even via console, that is why i m configuring the local command set in case if ACS down, at least i will be able to get in. That's the reason why you need to issue aaa authentication serial console TACACS+ LOCAL. When you or somebody console in, the person will authenticate with TACACS+ server when the server is available. When the server is unavailable, the person will authenticate locally.
If you want, you can do some testing by power down or disconnect your TACACS+ server off the network. You can then verify the authentication behavior when TACACS+ server is available and when it is unavailable. |
