38 Introduction
TACACS+
TACACS+ provides centralized security for validation of users accessing the switch. TACACS+ provides
a centralized user management system, while still retaining consistency with RADIUS and other
authentication processes.
RADIUS Client
RADIUS is a client/server-based protocol in which the server maintains a user database that contains user
authentication information, such as user name, password, and accounting information.
SSH/SSL
Secure Shell (SSH) is a protocol that provides a secure, remote connection to a device. This connection
provides functionality that is similar to an inbound telnet connection.
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol provides a means of abstracting an encrypted connection between
two stations. Once established, such a connection is virtually no different to use than an unsecured
connection.
