Cisco Nexus 3600 NX-OS - Configuring the Global Source Interface for TACACS+ Server Groups; Configuring the Global TACACS+ Timeout Interval

The following example shows how to configure a TACACS+ server group:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# aaa group server tacacs+ TacServer
switch(config-tacacs+)# server 10.10.2.2
switch(config-tacacs+)# deadtime 30
switch(config-tacacs+)# exit
switch(config)# show tacacs-server groups
switch(config)# copy running-config startup-config
Configuring the Global Source Interface for TACACS+ Server Groups
You can configure a global source interface for TACACS+ server groups to use when accessing TACACS+
servers. You can also configure a different source interface for a specific TACACS+ server group.

Step 5
Configuring the Global TACACS+ Timeout Interval
You can set a global timeout interval that the Cisco Nexus device waits for responses from all TACACS+
servers before declaring a timeout failure. The timeout interval determines how long the switch waits for
responses from TACACS+ servers before declaring a timeout failure.
