Before the change:
You can specify more than one service that you wish to use for login authentication. You can specify RADIUS
authentication and you can specify password-based authentication local to the Switch. You can specify only one
of the authentication methods, or both of them. If both are specified and authentication fails with the first
specified method, the second method is used.
The following figure shows the authentication method sequence used if RADIUS and local password
authentication are specified in this order.
