Local Authentication Process
When the switch is configured to use RADIUS, it reverts to local authentication only if one of these
two conditions exists:
"Local" is the authentication option for the access method being used.
The switch has been configured to query one or more RADIUS servers for a primary
authentication request, but has not received a response, and local is the configured
secondary option.
After two attempts failing due to
username or password entry
errors, the switch will terminate
the session.

the RADIUS server that will not
use the global encryption key.
