This article contains instructions on configuring a RUTX router to start using the TACACS+ function. TACACS+ (Terminal Access Controller Access Control System) is a security protocol that provides centralized validation of users who are attempting to gain access to a router or other devices. TACACS+ provides separate authentication, authorization, and accounting services. The TACACS+ will work on our '''newest firmware version which currently is 7.3''', unfortunately, older firmware versions does not support this function.
