TACACS authentication
Also, multiple challenges are supported for TACACS+ login authentication.
When TACACS authentication takes place, the following events occur.
1. A user attempts to gain access to the Dell PowerConnect device by doing one of the following:
• Logging into the device using Telnet, SSH, or the Web Management Interface
• Entering the Privileged EXEC level or CONFIG level of the CLI
2. The user is prompted for a username and password.
3. The user enters a username and password.
4. The Dell PowerConnect device sends a request containing the username and password to the
TACACS server.
5. The username and password are validated in the TACACS server database.
6. If the password is valid, the user is authenticated.
