About remote AAA with TACACS+

Remote AAA provides the following for your Aruba switch:

  • Authentication using remote TACACS+ AAA servers.

  • Authorization using remote TACACS+ AAA servers, providing fine-grained command authorization.

  • Transmission of locally collected accounting information to remote TACACS+ servers.
