The sequence of methods implemented in this command will affect the authentication result. For
example, if a user enters a sequence of methods like TACACS - XTACACS - Local Enable, the
Switch will send an authentication request to the first TACACS host in the server group. If no ver-
ification is found, the Switch will send an authentication request to the second TACACS host in the
server group and so on, until the list is exhausted. At 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" privilege.
NOTE: To set the Local Enable Password, see the next
section, entitled Local Enable Password.
