I've been testing this on a couple different flavors of 12.4T and even 15.0
and I've been getting the same behavior.

Basic tacacs config where the tacacs server is unreachable.

tacacs-server host 1.1.1.1
tacacs-server key ipexpert

Now when I try to test a bogus user account:

Router#test aaa group tacacs+ test test new-code
User rejected

Weird....and then when I look at the connection statistics regarding the
tacacs server, I see a socket open and close such as you would see with a
successful tcp connect. I would expect to see a failed connect attempt
register:

Router#sh tacacs

Tacacs+ Server            : 1.1.1.1/49
              Socket opens:          2
             Socket closes:          2
             Socket aborts:          0
             Socket errors:          0
           Socket Timeouts:          0
   Failed Connect Attempts:          0
        Total Packets Sent:          0
        Total Packets Recv:          0

I do not see the same behavior with a radius group configured. The radius
server is marked as unreachable as expected.

Can someone clarify this for me? I combed through the config docs and tried
google but am not having any luck.

Thanks,

Steve
