The Add Authentication Profile Page contains the following fields:
• Profile Name — Displays the Authentication profile name.
• Authentication Method — Defines the user authentication methods. The order of the authentication
methods indicates the order in which authentication is attempted. For example, if the authentication
method order is RADIUS, Local, the system first attempts to authenticate the user on a RADIUS
server. If there is no available RADIUS server, then authentication is attempted on the local data
base. Note that if the RADIUS server is available, but authentication fails, then the user is denied
access. The possible field values are:
– Local — Authenticates the user at the device level. The device checks the user name and
password for authentication.
– RADIUS — Authenticates the user at the RADIUS server.
– TACACS+ — Authenticates the user at the TACACS+ server.
– None — Indicates that no authentication method is used to authenticate the port.
