Sure is. Just configure your network devices to fail over to the alternate server if the first is unavailable.

If you use ACS as your tacacs server, you can synchronize the user databases between the multiple tacacs servers.

If you don't synchronize them then you can have the same username with different passwords/policies on the different ACS boxes. It's all a matter of how you configure your boxes, with synchronization or not.

Thanks for your answer .

So can two tacacs sever have different

user name ? for example,

Tacacs server A, user A = Adam

Tacacs server B, user B = Adam

please note that user A and user B are different person.

Will there be a sync issues, if it is ?
