2.3.22 Auth Method This page allows you to configure how a user is authenticated when he logs into the switch via one of the management client interfaces. Object Client Methods Description The management client for which the configuration below applies. 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 TACACS+ 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. Buttons Click to save changes.
