DESCRIPTION
Authentication
Use this section to specify the methods used to authenticate users accessing the Switch.
Login
These fields specify which database the Switch should use (first, second and third) to
authenticate administrator accounts (users for Switch management).
Configure the local user accounts in the
Access Control > Logins
screen. The RADIUS is a
external server. Before you specify the priority, make sure you have set up the corresponding
database correctly first.
You can specify up to three methods for the Switch to authenticate administrator accounts.
The Switch checks the methods in the order you configure them (first
Method 1
, and finally
Method 2
). You must configure the settings in the
Method 1
field. If you want the Switch to
check other sources for administrator accounts, specify them in the
Method 2
field.
