Authentication List Configuration
Use the Authentication List screen to configure the default login list. A login list specifies one or more authentication methods to validate switch or port access for the admin user.

If you select a method that does not time out as the first method, such as local, no other method will be tried, even if you have specified more than one method. This parameter will not appear when you first create a new 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 will be used for authentication. Since the local method does not time out, if you select this option as the first method, no other method will be tried, even if you have specified more than one method.
•RADIUS. The user's ID and password will be 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 will be 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 only available for Method 2 and Method 3.
