4. Click Disable OSCAR Authentication to prevent the DSR switch from performing internal or
external authentication.
NOTE: If the Disable OSCAR Authentication checkbox is not selected, the DSR switch will attempt external
authentication using the list of authentication servers that reside in the switch. If the authentication fails, the DSR
switch uses its internal user tables.
If you selected Disable OSCAR Authentication, continue to step 5.
If you did not select Disable OSCAR Authentication, go to step 6.
5. From the drop-down menu, specify a preemption level for the DSR switch (1-4).
6. Click Save to save your changes.
7. Click Close. The Unit Views window will appear.
