Abstract
A method and device for processing and tracking a TACACS+ session, wherein, the method includes: registering an attribute value in a TACACS+ packet of a TACACS+ session to be tracked; when a TACACS+ client receives a TACACS+ request packet, analyzing the TACACS+ request packet to judge whether an attribute value in the TACACS+ request packet is the same as the registered attribute value or not; if the two are the same, saving the Session_id value in the TACACS+ request packet; when the TACACS+ client receives a TACACS+ response packet, comparing the Session_id value in the TACACS+ response packet with a saved Session_id value, and if the two Session_id values are the same, setting the status of the corresponding TACACS+ session as successful. The embodiments of the present document track the TACACS+ response packet, so as to implement the function of tracking the whole TACACS+ session that conforms to specific conditions.
