Configuring Passwords
The Password Setting Page contains parameters for configuring device passwords. Authentication
on this device uses only a password, not a user name. Therefore, in order to configure RADIUS/
TACACS+ authentication, the user name should be configured as $enab15$ on the RADIUS/
TACACS+ server.
To define device passwords:
1. Click System > Management Security > Password. The Password Setting Page opens:
Figure 5-29
The Password Setting Page contains the following fields:
–Authentication Type – Displays authentication type used. The order by which
authentication is performed, If the first authentication method is not available, the second
one is used, until the full list is exhausted. For example, if "RADIUS, TACACS+, None"
list is selected, the RADIUS server is used to authenticate a user. If the RADIUS server is
unavailable, or there is no RADIUS server on the network, the TACACS+ server is used to
authenticate a user. If the TACACS+ server is unavailable, or there is no T ACACS+ server
on the network, then the user logs in with no authentication. The possible field values are:
–Local – Authentication occurs locally.
