The user may add one, or a combination of up to four of the following authentication methods to this method list: local_enable - Adding this parameter will require the user to be authenticated using the local enable password database on the Switch. The local enable password must be set by the user in the next section entitled Local Enable Password. none - Adding this parameter will require no authentication to access the Switch. radius - Adding this parameter will require the user to be authenticated using the RADIUS protocol from a remote RADIUS server. tacacs - Adding this parameter will require the user to be authenticated using the TACACS protocol from a remote TACACS server. xtacacs - Adding this parameter will require the user to be authenticated using the XTACACS protocol from a remote XTACACS server. tacacs+ - Adding this parameter will require the user to be authenticated using the TACACS protocol from a remote TACACS server. server_group - Adding a previously configured server group will require the user to be authenticated using a user-defined server group previously configured on the Switch. Click Apply to implement the changes. To return to the Enable Method Lists window, click the Show All Authentication Enable List Entries link. Configure Local Enable Password This window will configure the locally enabled password for the Enable Admin command. When a user chooses the "local_enable" method to promote user level privileges to administrator privileges, he or she will be prompted to enter the password configured here that is locally set on the Switch.
