Configuring AAA schemes
This section includes information on configuring local users, RADIUS schemes, HWTACACS schemes,
and LDAP schemes.
Configuring local users
To implement local authentication, authorization, and accounting, create local users and configure user
attributes on the device. The local users and attributes are stored in the local user database on the device.
A local user is uniquely identified by the combination of a username and a user type. Local users are
classified into the following types:
•
Device management user
—User who logs in to the device for device management.
•
Network access user
—User who accesses network resources through the device.
Configurable local user attributes are:
•
Service type
—Services that the user can use. Local authentication checks the service types of a local
user. If none of the service types is available, the user cannot pass authentication.
Service types include FTP, LAN access, SSH, Telnet, and terminal.
•
User state
—Whether or not a local user can request network services. There are two user states:
active
and
blocked
. A user in
active
state can request network services, but a user in
blocked
state
cannot.
•
User group
—Each local user belongs to a local user group and bears all attributes of the group,
such as the password control attributes and authorization attributes. For more information about
local user group, see "
Configuring user group attributes
•
Binding attributes
—Binding attributes are used for controlling the scope of users. They are checked
during local authentication of a user. If the attributes of a user do not match the binding attributes
configured for the local user account, the user cannot pass authentication. Binding attributes
include IP address, access port, MAC address, and native VLAN. For support and usage
information about binding attributes, see "
