5.2 User Login

5.2.1 Default Authentication

There are different types of authentication database (LOCAL, RADIUS and ONDEMAND) that are
supported by the system. Only Public Zone can set authentication.
A postfix is used to inform the system which authentication option to be used for authenticating an
account (e.g. Bob@local or Tim@radius1 etc.) when multiple options are concurrently in use. One of
the authentication options can be assigned as default. For authentication assigned as default, the
postfix can be omitted. For example, if "local" is the postfix of the default option, then user with
username Bob can login as "Bob" without having to type in "Bob@local”.


5.2.2 Login with Postfix

For each authentication option, set a postfix that is easy to distinguish (e.g. Local) user login with
which authentication server. The acceptable characters are numbers (0~9), alphabets (a~z or A~Z),
dash (-), underline (_) and dot (.) within a maximum of 40 characters. All other characters are not
allowed.

Beside the Default Authentication, all other authentication server users logging into to system, the
username must contain the postfix to identify the authentication option this user belongs to.
