Configuring an Authentication Profile The commands in this example create a new authenticating profile that uses the RADIUS server configured in the previous example to authenticate users who attempt to access the switch management interface by using SSH or Telnet. If the RADIUS authentication is unsuccessful, the switch uses the local user database to attempt to authenticate the users. To configure the switch: 1 Create a an access profile list that uses RADIUS as the first access method and the local user database as the second login method. console#configure console(config)#aaa authentication login myList radius local NOTE: The switch attempts to contact the primary RADIUS server that has been configured on the switch. To see an example of how to configure a RADIUS server on the switch, see "Configuring the Primary and Secondary RADIUS Servers" on page 231. 2 Enter line configuration mode for Telnet and specify that any attempt to access the switch by using Telnet are authenticated using the methods defined in the profile created in the previous step. console(config)#line telnet console(config-telnet)#login authentication myList console(config-telnet)#exit 3 Enter line configuration mode for SSH and specify that any attempt to access the switch by using SSH are authenticated using the methods defined in the myList profile. console(config)#line ssh console(config-ssh)#login authentication myList console(config-ssh)#exit console(config)#exit Controlling Management Access 233
