Overview
The Dial-in User (local) authentication method allows you to set up 802.1x
authentication parameters internally in the switch. In this case, the user
name and password combinations are entered with an optional VLAN
when they are defined. Based on these entries, the authentication process
of a supplicant is done locally by the AT-S116 Version 1.0.0 Management
software using a standard EAPOL (EAP over LAN) transaction.
