3.1.10 Security
The Security software function’s
 RADIUS and TACACS+ for user login authentication
 RADIUS for 802.1x port authentication
are only available for Weidmüller Premium Line managed switches.
Security can be categorized in two levels: the user name/password level, and the port access level.
For user name/password level security, Weidmüller switches provide two different user login options:
Terminal Access Controller Access-Control System Plus (TACACS+) and Remote Authentication
Dial In User Service (RADIUS). The TACACS+ and RADIUS mechanism is a centralized “AAA”
(Authentication, Authorization and Accounting) system for connecting to network services. The
fundamental purpose of both TACACS+ and RADIUS is to provide an efficient and secure
mechanism for user account management.
