ProSafe M5300 Switch
To configure authentication list methods for enable access:
1. List Name - If you are creating a new enable list, enter the name you want to assign. It
can be up to 15 alphanumeric characters long and is not case sensitive.
2. Use the drop-down menu to select the method that should appear first in the selected
authentication login list. If you select a method that does not time out as the first method,
such as 'local' no other method will be tried, even if you have specified more than one
method. The options are:
• Radius - The user's ID and password will be authenticated using the RADIUS server
instead of locally.
• Line - The line password will be used for authentication.
• Enable - The privileged EXEC password will be used for authentication.
• Tacacs - The user's ID and password will be authenticated using the TACACS+
server.
• None - The user will not be authenticated.
• Deny - Authentication will be denied always.
3. Use the drop-down menu to select the method, if any, that should appear second in the
selected authentication login list. This is the method that will be used if the first method times
out. If you select a method that does not time out as the second method, the third method
will not be tried. Note that this parameter will not appear when you first create a new login
list.
4. Use the drop-down menu to select the method, if any, that should appear third in the
selected authentication login list.
5. Click ADD to add a new login list to the switch.
6. Click DELETE to remove the selected authentication enable list from the configuration. You
can only use this button if you have Read/Write access. The change will not be retained
across a power cycle unless you perform a save.
