Configuring authentication-method lists
2
This command configures the device to use the local user accounts to authenticate attempts to
access the Privileged EXEC and CONFIG levels of the CLI.
Example
To configure the device to consult a RADIUS server first to authenticate attempts to access the
Privileged EXEC and CONFIG levels of the CLI, then consult the local user accounts if the RADIUS
server is unavailable, enter the following command.
Virtual ADX(config)#aaa authentication enable default radius local
Syntax: [no] aaa authentication snmp-server | web-server | enable | login default method1
[method2] [method3] [method4] [method5] [method6] [method7]
The snmp-server | web-server | enable | login parameter specifies the type of access this
authentication-method list controls. You can configure one authentication-method list for each type
of access.
NOTE
TACACS or TACACS+ and RADIUS are supported only with the enable and login parameters.
The method1 variable specifies the primary authentication method. The remaining optional
method variables specify additional methods to try if an error occurs with the primary method. A
method can be one of the values listed in the Method column in the following table.
