10-8 Administrator’s Handbook

Conﬁguration is similar to RADIUS server conﬁguration. An additional toggle option TACACS+ Accounting

allows you to enable or disable the TACACS+ Accounting ser vices feature.

Note: If the user is authenticated by a TACACS+ ser ver, and TACACS+ Accounting is enabled, the session is

switched into Command Line Interface (CLI) mode (see the Command Line Interface Commands Reference)

and cannot be switched to console mode. If TACACS+ Accounting is enabled on the Motorola Netopia

Router,

each command is sent to the TACACS+ ser ver in a TACACS+ Accounting transaction. The CLI command is then

executed, regardless of the return code from the server.

Warning alerts

Certain security-related conﬁguration changes cause the router to display a warning alert. Choosing either Local

then Remote or Remote then Local from the Security Databases pop-up menu when there are no conﬁgured

username/password pairs causes the router to present the following warning alert:
