User Guidelines
The default and optional list names created with the aaa authentication login
command are used with the login authentication command.
Create a list by entering the aaa authentication login
list-name method
command
for a particular protocol, where
list-name
is any character string used to name this
list. The
method
argument identifies the list of methods that the authentication
algorithm tries, in the given sequence.
The additional methods of authentication are used only if the previous method
returns an error, not if it fails. To ensure that the authentication succeeds even if all
methods return an error, specify none as the final method in the command line.
Example
The following example configures the authentication login:
Console(config)# aaa authentication login default radius tacacs
enable line local none
tacacs Uses the list of all TACACS+ servers for
authentication.
