Configuring Ethernet Speed and Duplex Settings
The aaa authorization exec tacacs+ local command sets these authorization parameters:
• Use TACACS+ for privileged EXEC access authorization if authentication was performed by using
TACACS+.
• Use the local database if authentication was not performed by using TACACS+.
Note Authorization is bypassed for authenticated users who log in through the CLI even if authorization has
been configured.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to specify TACACS+ authorization for
privileged EXEC access and network services:
To disable authorization, use the no aaa authorization {network | exec} method1 global configuration
command.
Displaying the TACACS+ Configuration
To display TACACS+ server statistics, use the show tacacs privileged EXEC command.
Configuring Ethernet Speed and Duplex Settings
You can assign the access point Ethernet port speed and duplex settings. Cisco recommends that you use
auto, the default setting, for both the speed and duplex settings on the access point Ethernet port. When
your access point receives inline power from a switch, any change in the speed or duplex settings that
resets the Ethernet link reboots the access point. If the switch port to which the access point is connected
is not set to auto, you can change the access point port to half or full to correct a duplex mismatch and
the Ethernet link is not reset. However, if you change from half or full back to auto, the link is reset and,
if your access point receives inline power from a switch, the access point reboots.
Note The speed and duplex settings on the access point Ethernet port must match the Ethernet settings
on the port to which the access point is connected. If you change the settings on the port to which
the access point is connected, change the settings on the access point Ethernet port to match.
Command Purpose
Step 1
configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
aaa authorization network tacacs+ Configure the access point for user TACACS+ authorization for all
network-related service requests.
Step 3
aaa authorization exec tacacs+ Configure the access point for user TACACS+ authorization to determine
if the user has privileged EXEC access.
The exec keyword might return user profile information (such as
autocommand information).

end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 5
show running-config Verify your entries.
Step 6
copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
