23 Managing Authentication
Servers
This chapter describes authentication servers and how they are used with the switch. The types of servers
described include Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS), Lightweight Directory Access
Protocol (LDAP), Terminal Access Controller Access Control System (TACACS+), and SecurID ACE/
Server.
In This Chapter
The chapter includes some information about attributes that must be configured on the servers, but it
primarily addresses configuring the switch through the Command Line Interface (CLI) to communicate
with the servers to retrieve authentication information about users.
Configuration procedures described include:
• Configuring a RADIUS Server. This procedure is described in “RADIUS Servers” on page 23-7.
• Configuring a TACACS+ Server. This procedure is described in “TACACS+ Server” on page 23-12.
• Configuring an LDAP Server. This procedure is described in “LDAP Servers” on page 23-14.
For information about using servers for authenticating users to manage the switch, see the “Switch Secu-
rity” chapter in the OmniSwitch AOS Release 7 Switch Management Guide.
