Configuring authentication-method lists
2
Examples of authentication-method lists
Example
The following example shows how to configure authentication-method lists for the Web
Management Interface, IronView and the Privileged EXEC and CONFIG levels of the CLI. The
primary authentication method for each is “local”. The device will authenticate access attempts
using the locally configured user names and passwords first.
To configure an authentication-method list for the Web Management Interface, enter a command
such as the following.
ServerIronADX(config)# aaa authentication web-server default local
This command configures the device to use the local user accounts to authenticate access to the
device through the Web Management Interface. If the device does not have a user account that
matches the user name and password entered by the user, the user is not granted access.
To configure an authentication-method list for IronView, enter a command such as the following.
ServerIronADX(config)# aaa authentication snmp-server default local
This command configures the device to use the local user accounts to authenticate access
attempts through IronView.
To configure an authentication-method list for the Privileged EXEC and CONFIG levels of the CLI,
enter the following command.
ServerIronADX(config)# aaa authentication enable default local
This command configures the device to use the local user accounts to authenticate attempts to
access the Privileged EXEC and CONFIG levels of the CLI.
Example
To configure the device to consult a RADIUS server first to authenticate attempts to access the
Privileged EXEC and CONFIG levels of the CLI, then consult the local user accounts if the RADIUS
server is unavailable, enter the following command.
ServerIronADX(config)# aaa authentication enable default radius local
Syntax: [no] aaa authentication snmp-server | web-server | enable | login default <method1>
[<method2>] [<method3>] [<method4>] [<method5>] [<method6>] [<method7>]
The snmp-server | web-server | enable | login parameter specifies the type of access this
authentication-method list controls. You can configure one authentication-method list for each
type of access.
NOTE
TACACS or TACACS+ and RADIUS are supported only with the enable and login parameters.
The <method1> parameter specifies the primary authentication method. The remaining optional
<method> parameters specify additional methods to try if an error occurs with the primary method.
A method can be one of the values listed in the Method Parameter column in the following table.
