Purpose
Used to create a user defined method list of authentication methods
for users logging on to the Switch.
Syntax
create authen_login method_list_name <string 15>
Description
This command is used to create a list for authentication techniques
for user login. The Switch can support up to eight method lists, but
one is reserved as a default and cannot be deleted. Multiple method
lists must be created and configured separately.
Parameters
<string 15>
Enter an alphanumeric string of up to 15 characters to
define the given
method list
.
Restrictions
Only Administrator-level users can issue this command.

config authen_login
Purpose
Used to configure a user-defined or default
method list
of authentication
methods for user login.
Syntax
config authen_login [default | method_list_name <string 15>]
method {tacacs | xtacacs | | radius | server_group <string
15> | local | none}
Description
This command will configure a user-defined or default
method list
of
authentication methods for users logging on to the Switch. The
sequence of methods implemented in this command will affect the
authentication result. For example, if a user enters a sequence of
methods like
tacacs – xtacacs – local,
the Switch will send an
authentication request to the first
tacacs
host in the server group. If no
response comes from the server host, the Switch will send an
authentication request to the second
tacacs
host in the server group and
so on, until the list is exhausted. At that point, the Switch will restart the
