Provide you configure it do so...for example:

enable use-tacacs
enable last-resort password
enable password xxxxxxxx
service password-encryption
tacacs-server last-resort password

I disagree with Kathy.  Our implemetation works like this.  Logging into
router via tty or console it will ask for username and password from tacacs
server.  Should the tacacs server go unreachable for any reason, the router
asks you for the enable password which lets you in.

Provided there are no "backdoors" or backup tacacs, it should fail.

Hi,
        Quick question, because I'm away from a lab that would give me the
ability
to test this. If I have authentication on my console/aux ports set to TACACS
and my TACACS server goes down, what happens if I connect to either of those
ports (say the AUX port with a modem)? Do I get denied or allowed? ie, do we
fail open or closed?

Thanks,
Ric
