Description
Use the primary accounting command to specify the primary HWTACACS accounting server.
Use the undo primary accounting command to remove the configuration.
By default, no primary HWTACACS accounting server is specified.
The IP addresses of the primary and secondary accounting servers cannot be the same. Otherwise, the
configuration fails.
The shared key configured by using the primary accounting command takes precedence over the one
configured by using the key accounting [ cipher | simple ] key command.
The HWTACACS service port configured on the device and that of the HWTACACS server must be
consistent.
If you configure the command repeatedly, only the last configuration takes effect.
You can remove an accounting server only when it is not used by any active TCP connection to send
accounting packets.
