To configure authentication list methods for HTTP access:
1. List Name - Select the HTTP list name for which you want to configure data.
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:
Local - The user's locally stored ID and password will be used for authentication.
Radius - The user's ID and password will be authenticated using the RADIUS server
instead of locally.
Tacacs - The user's ID and password will be authenticated using the TACACS+
server.
None - The user will not be authenticated.
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
