How to: Cisco WLC Tacacs/radius for management
It took some time this morning for configuring a RADIUS or TACACS server for management access to a Cisco WLC. So, let’s write a short how-to:
- Login into the WLC and click Security – AAA – TACACS+ (or Radius) – Authentication
- Click New and enter:
- Server IP Address – IP address of the TACACS server
- Shared secret – The configured shared secret on the TACACS server
- If you’re using TACACS, click Authorization and enter the same Server IP address and Shared Secret. Configuring accounting is optional
- Click Security – Priority order – Management user and make sure TACACS (or radius) is in top of the list
