config authen_enable
that point, the Switch will restart the same sequence with the following protocol listed,
xtacacs. If no authentication takes place using the xtacacs list, the local_enable password
set in the Switch is used to authenticate the user.
Successful authentication using any of these methods will give the user an “Admin” level
privilege.
Parameters default – The default method list for administration rights authentication, as defined by the
user. The user may choose one or a combination of up to four of the following
authentication methods:
tacacs – Adding this parameter will require the user to be authenticated using
the TACACS protocol from the remote TACACS server hosts of the TACACS
server group list.
xtacacs – Adding this parameter will require the user to be authenticated using
the XTACACS protocol from the remote XTACACS server hosts of the
XTACACS server group list.
tacacs+ – Adding this parameter will require the user to be authenticated using
the TACACS+ protocol from the remote TACACS+ server hosts of the TACACS+
server group list.
radius – Adding this parameter will require the user to be authenticated using the
RADIUS protocol from the remote RADIUS server hosts of the RADIUS server
group list.
server_group <string 15> – Adding this parameter will require the user to be
authenticated using a user–defined server group previously configured on the
Switch.
local_enable – Adding this parameter will require the user to be authenticated
using the local user account database on the Switch.
none – Adding this parameter will require no authentication to access the Switch.
method_list_name – Enter a previously implemented method list name defined by the
user (create authen_enable). The user may add one, or a combination of up to four of the
following authentication methods to this method list:
tacacs – Adding this parameter will require the user to be authenticated using
the TACACS protocol from a remote TACACS server.
xtacacs – Adding this parameter will require the user to be authenticated using
the XTACACS protocol from a remote XTACACS server.
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.

authenticated using a user–defined server group previously configured on the

using the local user account database on the Switch. The local enable password
of the device can be configured using the “config admin local_password”
command.
