GS716Tv2 and GS724Tv3 Software Administration Manual Table 5-10. Authentication Profile Fields Field Description List Name The switch supports a single list named defaultList. You can change the authentication methods for this list, but you cannot change the list name. To change the authentication method for the defaultList, select the check box next to the defaultList name and use the drop down menus. 1 Use the drop down menu to select the authentication method that should appear first in the selected authentication login list. If you select a method that does not time out as the first method, such as 'local', no other method will be tried, even if you have specified more than one method. This parameter will not appear when you first create a new login list. User authentication occurs in the order the methods are selected. Possible methods are as follows: • Local: The user's locally stored ID and password will be used for authentication. Since the local method does not time out, if you select this option as the first method, no other method will be tried, even if you have specified more than one method. • RADIUS: The user's ID and password will be authenticated using the RADIUS server. If you select RADIUS or TACACS+ as the first method and an error occurs during the authentication, the switch uses Method 2 to authenticate the user. • TACACS+: The user's ID and password will be authenticated using the TACACS+ server. If you select RADIUS or TACACS+ as the first method and an error occurs during the authentication, the switch attempts user authentication Method 2. • None: The authentication method is unspecified. This option is only available for Method 2 and Method 3. 2 Use the menu to select the authentication method, if any, that should appear second in the selected authentication login list. This is the method that will be used if the first method times out. If you select a method that does not time out as the second method, the third method will not be tried. This parameter will not appear when you first create a new login list. 3 Use the menu to select the authentication method, if any, that should appear third in the selected authentication login list. This parameter will not appear when you first create a new login list. 2. Click Cancel to cancel the configuration on the screen and reset the data on the screen to the latest value of the switch. 3. If you make changes to the page, click Apply to apply the changes to the system. 5-14 v1.0, July 2009 Managing Device Security

Description
List Name
The switch supports a single list named defaultList. You can change the
authentication methods for this list, but you cannot change the list
name.
To change the authentication method for the defaultList, select the
check box next to the defaultList name and use the drop down menus.
1
Use the drop down menu to select the authentication method that
should appear first in the selected authentication login list. If you select
a method that does not time out as the first method, such as ‘local’, no
other method will be tried, even if you have specified more than one
method. This parameter will not appear when you first create a new
login list. User authentication occurs in the order the methods are
selected. Possible methods are as follows:
Local
:
The user's locally stored ID and password will be used for
authentication. Since the local method does not time out, if you select
this option as the first method, no other method will be tried, even if
you have specified more than one method.
RADIUS
:
The user's ID and password will be authenticated using the
RADIUS server. If you select RADIUS or TACACS+ as the first
method and an error occurs during the authentication, the switch uses
Method 2 to authenticate the user.
TACACS+
:
The user's ID and password will be authenticated using
the TACACS+ server. If you select RADIUS or TACACS+ as the first
method and an error occurs during the authentication, the switch
attempts user authentication Method 2.
None
:
The authentication method is unspecified. This option is only
available for Method 2 and Method 3.
2
Use the menu to select the authentication method, if any, that should
appear second in the selected authentication login list. This is the
method that will be used if the first method times out. If you select a
method that does not time out as the second method, the third method
will not be tried. This parameter will not appear when you first create a
new login list.
3
Use the menu to select the authentication method, if any, that should
appear third in the selected authentication login list. This parameter will
not appear when you first create a new login list.
