Configure An Http Authentication List - NETGEAR M4100 Series User Manual

Configure an HTTP Authentication List

You can configure an HTTP list. An HTTP list specifies the authentication method(s) used to
validate the switch or port access through HTTP.

To configure an HTTP authentication list:
1. Prepare your computer with a static IP address in the 169.254.100.0 subnet, for
example, 169.254.100.201.
2. Connect an Ethernet cable from an Ethernet port on your computer to an Ethernet port on
the switch.
3. Launch a web browser.
4. Enter the IP address of the switch in the web browser address field.
The default IP address of the switch is 169.254.100.100.
The Login screen displays.
5. Enter the user name and password.
The default admin user name is admin and the default admin password is blank, that is,
do not enter a password.
6. Click the Login button.
The web management interface menu displays.
7. Select Security
List.
8. Select the check box for a list name.
9. Use the numbered lists (1, 2, 3, 4) to select the method to appear in the selected
authentication login list.
If you select a method in the first list that does not time out, such as local, no other
method is tried, even if you specified more than one method. The options are as follows:
• Local. The user's locally stored ID and password are used for authentication.
• Radius. The user's ID and password are authenticated using the RADIUS server
instead of locally.
• TACACS. The user's ID and password are authenticated using the TACACS server.
