Command: show authen_login method_list_name Permit

Success.

DES-6500:4#

config authen_enable

Purpose

Used to configure a user-defined method list of authentication

 

methods for promoting normal user level privileges to Administrator

 

level privileges on the Switch.

Syntax

config authen_enable [default method_list_name <string 15>]

 

method {tacacs xtacacs tacacs+ radius server_group

 

<string 15> local_enable none}

Description

This command is used to promote users with normal level privileges

 

to Administrator level privileges using authentication methods on the

 

Switch. Once a user acquires normal user level privileges on the

 

Switch, he or she must be authenticated by a method on the Switch

 

to gain administrator privileges on the Switch, which is defined by

 

the Administrator. A maximum of eight (8) method lists can be

 

implemented on the Switch.

 

The sequence of methods implemented in this command will affect

 

the authentication result. For example, if a user enters a sequence of

 

methods like tacacs – xtacacs – local_enable, the Switch will send

 

an authentication request to the first tacacs host in the server group.

 

If no verification is found, the Switch will send an authentication

 

request to the second tacacs host in the server group and so on,

 

until the list is exhausted. At that point, the Switch will restart the

 

same sequence with the following protocol listed, xtacacs. If no

 

authentication takes place using the xtacacs list, the local_enable

 

password set in the Switch is used to authenticate the user.

 

Successful authentication using any of these methods will give the

 

user a “Admin” privilege.

Parameters

default – The default method list for administration rights

 

authentication, as defined by the user. The user may choose one or

 

a combination of up to four (4) of the following authentication

 

methods:

 

tacacs – Adding this parameter will require the user to be

 

authenticated using the TACACS protocol from the remote

 

TACACS server hosts of the TACACS server group list.

 

xtacacs – Adding this parameter will require the user to be

 

authenticated using the XTACACS protocol from the remote

 

XTACACS server hosts of the XTACACS server group list.

 

tacacs+ – Adding this parameter will require the user to be

 

authenticated using the TACACS+ protocol from the remote

 

TACACS+ server hosts of the TACACS+ server group list.

 

radius - Adding this parameter will require the user to be

 

authenticated using the RADIUS protocol from a remote

 

RADIUS server previously implemented on the Switch.

 

server_group <string 15> – Adding this parameter will
