4.2.3.9 Authentication List Configuration
Use this screen to configure login lists. A login list specifies the authentication method(s) you want used to validate switch or
port access for the users associated with the list. The pre-configured users, admin and guest, are assigned to a pre-configured
list named defaultList, which you may not delete. All newly created users are also assigned to the defaultList until you
specifically assign them to a different list
Selection Criteria
。 Authentication List - Select the authentication login list you want to configure. Select 'create' to define a new
login list. When you create a new login list, 'local' is set as the initial authentication method.
Configurable Data
。 Authentication List Name - If you are creating a new login list, enter the name you want to assign. It can be up to
15 alphanumeric characters long and is not case sensitive.
。 Method 1 - Use the dropdown menu to select the 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. Note that this parameter will not appear when you first
create a new login list. The options are:
¾ Local- the user's locally stored ID and password will be used for authentication
¾ Radius- the user's ID and password will be authenticated using the RADIUS server instead of locally
¾ Reject- the user is never authenticated
¾ Undefined- the authentication method is unspecified (this may not be assigned as the first method)
。 Method 2 - Use the dropdown menu to select the 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. Note that this parameter will not
appear when you first create a new login list.
。 Method 3 - Use the dropdown menu to select the method, if any, that should appear third in the selected
authentication login list. Note that this parameter will not appear when you first create a new login list.
