Under the Serial Port heading, click Configuration will show the list of port summary as below.

2.5.1 Port Authentication

Authentication is the process of identifying an individual, usually based on a username and password. The IP serial console

supports various authentication options, such as Local, RADIUS, to authenticate the users who access the serial port.

When the authentication is set to Local, the IP serial console will use its own user list to authenticate a user. If configured

otherwise, the IP serial console will request authentication from the external authentication servers (i.e. RADIUS) Figure below
shows conceptually the user authentication process when using an external authentication server.

2.5.2 Port Enable / Disable

Each serial port can be enabled or disabled. A disabled serial port cannot be accessed by user. User can reset the serial port to

default settings by clicking the button Set to default.
