HTTP Authentication List

Use the HTTP Authentication List screen to configure the default HTTP login list.

To change the HTTP authentication method for the default list:

1.Select Security > Management Security > Authentication List > HTTP Authentication List.

The following screen displays:

2.Select the check box next to the List Name.

3.From the list in the 1 column, select the HTTP authentication method that must appear first in the selected authentication login list.

If you select a method that does not time out as the first method, such as local, no other method is attempted, even if you have specified more than one method. This parameter does not appear when you first create a login list. User authentication occurs in the order the methods are selected. Possible methods are as follows:

•Local. The user's locally stored ID and password is used for authentication. Since the local method does not time out, if you select this option as the first method, no other method is tried, even if you have specified more than one method.

•RADIUS. The user's ID and password is authenticated using the RADIUS server. If you select RADIUS or TACACS+ as the first method and an error occurs during the authentication, the switch uses method 2 to authenticate the user.

•TACACS+. The user's ID and password is authenticated using the TACACS+ server. If you select RADIUS or TACACS+ as the first method and an error occurs during the authentication, the switch attempts user authentication method 2.

•None. The authentication method is unspecified. This option is available only for method 2 and method 3.
