Method
Use the pull-down menu to choose the type of authentication to be used when

configured in the MAC-based Access Control Local Database Settings window.

MAC-based Access Control. Remember, the MAC list must be previously set on the
RADIUS server and the settings for the server must be first configured on the Switch.

requesting authentication. The default password is default.

authentication will fail. When authentication failover is Enabled, if RADIUS server
authentication is unreachable, the local database will do the autehtnetication.
