Security Tab for SRW2048 Switches - Authentication Profiles

The Authentication Profiles screen contains fields for selecting the user authentication method on the Switch.

User authentication occurs both locally and via an external server.

User authentication occurs in the order the methods are selected. For example, if both the Local and RADIUS options are selected, the user is authenticated first locally. If the local user database is empty, the user is then authenticated via the RADIUS server. If the authentication fails using the first method, the authentication process ends.

If an error occurs during the authentication, the next selected method is used. To open the page, click Security - Authentication Profiles.

Profile Name. User-defined authentication profile lists to which user-defined authentication profiles are added. The defaults are Network Default and Console Default.

Methods. User authentication methods. The possible options are:

None — No user authentication occurs.

Local — User authentication occurs at the Switch level. The Switch checks the user name and password for authentication.

Line — The line password is used for user authentication.

Enable — The enable password is used for authentication.

TACACS+ — The user authentication occurs at the TACACS+ server.
