NAME

POE::Component::Server::TacacsPlus - POE Tacacs+ server component

SYNOPSIS

use POE::Component::Server::TacacsPlus;
use Net::TacacsPlus::Constants;

POE::Component::Server::TacacsPlus->spawn(
	'server_port' => 4949,
	'key'         => 'secret',
	'handler_for' => {
		TAC_PLUS_AUTHEN() => {
			TAC_PLUS_AUTHEN_TYPE_PAP() => \&check_pap_authentication,
		},
	},
);

POE::Kernel->run();

sub check_pap_authentication {
	my $username = shift;
	my $password = shift;
	
	return 1 if $password = $username.'123';
	return 0;
}

DESCRIPTION

This component will listen on $server_port for Tacacs+ client reqests and dispatch them to the local functions handlers.

Currently only PAP requests can be dispatched as this is HIGHLY experimental and more like idea then functional code even that the pap is working fine.

I'm looking forward to you comments and suggestions until i'll invest more time on it.
