Mapping Authentication Profiles
After authentication profiles are defined, authentication profiles can be applied to
management access methods. For example, console users can be authenticated
by one authentication profile, while Telnet users are authenticated by another
authentication profile.
Authentication methods are selected using arrows. The order in which the
methods are selected is the order by which the authentication methods are used.
The

methods. To map authentication profiles:
