CLI Guide

If a VRF is not configured on the TACACS group, then servers configured in the
group are considered to be on the default VRF. TACACS servers that are configured
in the CONFIGURATION mode are also considered to be on the default VRF.
For AAA servers to use a group of TACACS servers, you must explicitly configure
the group using the aaa tacacs group group-name command. The order in
which the TACACS servers are tried depends on the order in which they are
configured.
Example
Dell(conf)# tacacs-server group group1
Dell(conf-tacacs-group)# tacacs-server host 1.1.1.1 key secr-
et
Dell(conf-tacacs-group)# no tacacs-server host 1.1.1.1
Dell(conf-tacacs-group)#
