Authentication Type	Definition
NIS NIS	All authentication types but NIS follow the format
	all.authtype <Authentication>DownLocal or
	<Authentication> (e.g. all.authtype radius or
	radiusDownLocal or ldap or ldapDownLocal, etc).
	NIS requires all.authtype to be set as local, regardless
	if it will be "nis" or its “Downlocal" equivalent.

To configure user/group authentication, perform the following steps:

1.From the top menu, select Ports; from the left menu, select Physical Ports; from the form tab menu, select Access.

The system brings up the Access form:

2.Enter the user or the group name.

3.From the Type drop down list, select the authentication type.
