server_host - Server host’s IP address.
<ipaddr> - Enter the server host IP address used here.
protocol - Specifies the host's authentication protocol.
tacacs - Server host’s authentication protocol.

Only Administrators can issue this command.
Example
To create a TACACS+ authentication server host, its listening port number is 15555 and timeout
value is 10 seconds:
DWS-3160-24PC:admin# create authen server_host 10.1.1.222 protocol tacacs+ port
15555 timeout 10
Command: create authen server_host 10.1.1.222 protocol tacacs+ port 15555
timeout 10
Success.
