DGS-3048 Gigabit Ethernet Switch Manual Login Method Lists This command will configure a user-defined or default Login Method List of authentication techniques for users logging on to the Switch. The sequence of techniques implemented in this command will affect the authentication result. For example, if a user enters a sequence of techniques, for example TACACS+, RADIUS - 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 same sequence with the following protocol listed, RADIUS. If no authentication takes place using the RADIUS list, the local account database set in the Switch is used to authenticate the user. When the local method is used, the privilege level will be dependant on the local account privilege configured on the Switch. Successful login using any of these techniques will give the user a "User" privilege only. If the user wishes to upgrade his or her status to the administrator level, the user must use a CLI command, after which the user must enter a previously configured password, set by the administrator. To view the following screen click Security > Access Authentication Control > Login Method Lists: Figure 10- 13. Login Method List Settings Window The Switch contains one Method List that is set and cannot be removed, yet can be modified. To delete a Login Method List defined by the user, click the under the Delete heading corresponding to the entry desired to be deleted. To modify a Login Method List, click on its hyperlinked Method List Name. To configure a new Method List, click the Add button. Both actions will result in the same screen to configure: Figure 10- 14. Login Method List - Edit Window (Console default) 89

This command will configure a user-defined or default
Login Method List
of authentication techniques for users logging on
to the Switch. The sequence of techniques implemented in this command will affect the authentication result. For example,
if a user enters a sequence of techniques, for example TACACS+, RADIUS - 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 same sequence with the following protocol listed, RADIUS. If no authentication takes place using

the privilege level will be dependant on the local account privilege configured on the Switch.
Successful login using any of these techniques will give the user a "User" privilege only. If the user wishes to upgrade his or
