The authentication section allows you to configure how a user is authenticated when he logs
into the switch via one of the management client interfaces.
The table has one row for each client type and a number of columns, which are:
Client
The management client for which the configuration below applies.
Methods
Method can be set to one of the following values:
•
No: Authentication is disabled and login is not possible.
•
Local: Use the local user database on the switch for authentication.
•
Radius: Use remote RADIUS server(s) for authentication.
•
Tacacs: Use remote server(s) for authentication.
Methods that involves remote servers are timed out if the remote servers are offline. In this case the next
method is tried. Each method is tried from left to right and continues until a method either approves or
rejects a user. If a remote server is used for primary authentication it is recommended to configure
secondary authentication as 'local'. This will enable the management client to login via the local user
database if none of the configured authentication servers are alive.
