AUTHENTICATION
LOGIN
Usage
When a user attempts to log in, the switch sends an authentication request to the
first authentication server in the method list. If the first server in the list is reachable
and it contains a username and password matching the authentication request,
the user is authenticated and the login succeeds. If the authentication server
denies the authentication request because of an incorrect username or password,
the user login fails. If the first server in the method list is unreachable, the switch
sends the request to the next server in the list, and so on.
For example, if the method list specifies
group local
, and a user attempts
to log in with a password that does not match a user entry in the first
server, if this server denies the authentication request, then the switch
does not try any other servers not the local user database; the user login
fails.
Examples

To configure a user login authentication method list called USERS to first use the
