Security Commands
This section describes commands used for configuring security settings for login users and port
users.
authentication login
This command creates an authentication login list. The <listname> is up to 15 alphanumeric
characters and is not case sensitive. Up to 10 authentication login lists can be configured on the
switch. When a list is created, the authentication method “local” is set as the first method.
When the optional parameters “Option1”, “Option2” and/or “Option3” are used, an ordered list of
methods are set in the authentication login list. If the authentication login list does not exist, a new
authentication login list os first created and then the authentication methods are set in the
authentication login list. The maximum number of authentication login methods is three. The
possible method values are
local, radius and reject.
The value of
local indicates that the user’s locally stored ID and password are used for
authentication. The value of
radius indicates that the user’s ID and password will be authenticated
using the RADIUS server. The value of
reject indicates that the user is never authenticated.
To authenticate a user, the authentication methods in the user’s login will be attempted in order
until an authentication attempt succeeds or fails
.
Note that the default login list included with the default configuration can not be changed.
