User Authentication
ADVICE
Danger of an unreachable system due to different character encoding.
When accessing the system the code page used by the accessing program has to be ISO
8859-15 (Latin-9). Due to different character encoding of diacritical characters on login,
different code pages may lead to falsely interpreted and, hence, invalid passwords. The
system may become unreachable.

2.3.2
Login Mode Radius
As an alternative to the loginmode password that uses a fixed password for authentication,
a login is also possible with the help of a (remote) authentication server. User name and
password combinations can be verified by a RADIUS server.
To use the login mode radius on a EDS500 device, the RADIUS server that can be reached via
the network has to be configured first, refer to Chapter 2.23, "RADIUS". If no RADIUS server
is configured the login mode password stays active as a fall-back. After successful login with
RADIUS (e.g. via Telnet or SSH) the user is in view mode. If the web interface is used with
RADIUS, the user is in operation mode configuration after authentication.

ADVICE
Serial connections to the command line interface (CLI) via serial connections are not
authenticated by RADIUS but always with the login and enable password (refer to
Chapter 2.3.1, "Login Mode Password").
2.3.3
Automatic Session Termination
To avoid that authenticated connections stay open due to a forgotten logout there is an
automatic function for logout and disable on EDS500 managed switches.
A timeout can be set for the access to the management console via serial connections, Telnet
connections, SSH connections and the Web-interface.
A serial connection to a management console gets only terminated if a login password is set
and the value for idle-logout timeout does not equal 0.
The default value for the automatic termination of the operation mode configuration after
inactivity is 600 seconds.
The default value for the automatic termination of the view mode is 1200 seconds.
