4 Configuration
Priority 1, 2, 3, 4: The user may add one, or a combination of up to four of the following authentication
methods to this method list:
none – Adding this parameter will require an authentication to access the Switch.
local – Adding this parameter will require the user to be authenticated using the local user account
database on the Switch.
tacacs+ – Adding this parameter will require the user to be authenticated using the TACACS+
protocol from a remote TACACS+ server.
radius – Adding this parameter will require the user to be authenticated using the RADIUS protocol from a
remote RADIUS server.
Security > Access Authentication Control > Local Enable Password Settings
The Local Enable Password Settings page allows user to configure the locally enabled password. When a
user chooses the "local_enable" method to promote user level privileges to administrator privileges, he or
she will be prompted to enter the password configured here that is locally set on the Switch.
Figure 4.151 – Security > Access Authentication control > Local Enable Password Settings
To set the Local Enable Password, set the following parameters and click Apply:
Old Local Enable Password: If a password was previously configured for this entry, enter it here in order to
change it to a new password.
New Local Enable Password: Enter the new password that you wish to set on the Switch to authenticate
users attempting to access Administrator Level privileges on the Switch. The user may set a password of up
to 15 characters.
Confirm Local Enable Password: Confirm the new password entered above. Entering a different password
here from the one set in the New Local Enabled field will result in a fail message.
Security > Traffic Segmentation
This feature provides administrators to limit traffic flow from a single port to a group of ports on a single
Switch. This method of segmenting the flow of traffic is similar to using VLANs to limit traffic, but is more
restrictive.
To configure traffic segmentation specify a port or All ports from the switch, using the Port pull-down menu
and select Port Map then click Apply to enter the settings into the Switch's Traffic Segmentation table.
