The User Authentication Parameters area contains the following field:
•
Authentication Type — Defines the possible authentication types. Any one
or combination of these types can be selected. If the first method returns an
error (not a failure), the device applies the second method, and so on. To
ensure successful authentication in case other methods result in errors,
specify None as the last method to try. The possible authentication types
are as follows:
-
Local
— Authenticates the user at the device level. The device checks
the user name and password for authentication.
-
RADIUS
— Authenticates the user at the RADIUS server.
-
TACACS+
— Authenticates the user at the TACACS+ server.
-
None
— Assigns no authentication method to the authentication profile.
The Local Users Edit area contains the following fields:
•
User Name — Specifies the user name.
•
Password — Specifies the new password. The password is not displayed.
As it entered an "*" corresponding to each character is displayed in the field.
(Range: 1-15 characters).
•
Confirm Password — Confirms the new password. The password entered
into this field must be exactly the same as the password entered in the
Password field.
Define the relevant fields.
Click Add to List. The new user configuration is displayed in the Local Users Table
at the bottom of the screen.
