Securing Access to the NAM
As mentioned in the planning discussions earlier, you should consider carefully how you want to secure the
NAM because any configuration changes made to the NAM may affect the monitoring you rely on for
reporting, notification, and decision making. With the NAM, you have several levels of security you can use
to define access to the NAM.
• You can create users with different levels of access on a per-user basis.
• TACACS+: You can configure the NAM to use a TACACS+ server to authenticate and authorize user
access to the NAM.
• Define SNMP community strings to enable SNMP management systems to have read or write access
to the NAM.
Configuration options for each of these are covered in the next few pages.
