Usage Guide
The device and TACACS+ secure server communicates with each other successfully on the basis of
the shared password. Therefore, to make the device and TACACS+ secure server communicate with
each other, the same shared password must be defined on both of the device and the server. When
we need to specify different passwords for every server, use key option in tacacs-server host
command. We can set a key to all the servers that have not set key option in global configuration
mode.
