Login Method Lists 

This command will configure a user-defined or default Login Method List of authentication techniques for users logging on to the 
Switch. The sequence of techniques implemented in this command will affect the authentication result. For example, if a user 
enters a sequence of techniques, for example TACACS - XTACACS- local, the Switch will send an authentication request to the 
first TACACS host in the server group. If no response comes from the server host, the Switch will send an authentication request 
to the second TACACS host in the server group and so on, until the list is exhausted. At that point, the Switch will restart the same 
sequence with the following protocol listed, XTACACS. If no authentication takes place using the XTACACS list, the local 
account database set in the Switch is used to authenticate the user. When the local method is used, the privilege level will be 
dependant on the local account privilege configured on the Switch. 

Successful login using any of these techniques will give the user a "User" privilege only. If the user wishes to upgrade his or her 
status to the administrator level, the user must use the 

Enable Admin 

window, in which the user must enter a previously 

configured password, set by the administrator. (See the Enable Admin part of this section for more detailed information 
concerning the Enable Admin command.) 

To view the following window click 

Security Management > Access Authentication Control > Login Method Lists

Figure 7- 13. Login Method Lists Settings window 

The Switch contains one Method List that is set and cannot be removed, yet can be modified. To delete a Login Method List 
defined by the user, click the 

X
