8. From the menu in the 1 column, select the authentication method that must be used first in
the selected authentication login list.
If you select a method that does not time out as the first method, such as Local, no other
method is tried, even if you specified more than one method. User authentication occurs
in the order the methods are selected. Possible methods are as follows:
• Local. The user’s locally stored ID and password are used for authentication. Since
the Local method does not time out, if you select this option as the first method, no
other method is tried, even if you specified more than one method.
• RADIUS. The user’s ID and password are authenticated using the RADIUS server. If
you select RADIUS as the first method and an error occurs during the authentication,
the switch uses Method 2 to authenticate the user.
• Tacacs+. The user’s ID and password are authenticated using the TACACS+ server.
If you select Tacacs+ as the first method and an error occurs during the
authentication, the switch attempts user authentication Method 2.
• None. The authentication method is unspecified. This option is available only for
Method 2 and Method 3.
9. From the menu in the 2 column, select the authentication method, if any, that must be used
second in the selected authentication login list.
This is the method that is used if the first method times out. If you select a method that
does not time out as the second method, the third method is not tried.
10. From the menu in the 3 column, select the authentication method, if any, that must be used
third in the selected authentication login list.
11. From the menu in the 4 column, select the method, if any, that must be used fourth in the
selected authentication login list.
This is the method that is used if all previous methods time out.
12. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
Configure the HTTPS authentication list
You can configure the default login list for secure HTTP (HTTPS).
To configure an HTTPS authentication list:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired connection to connect your computer to the network, or
connect directly to a switch that is off-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
For information about finding the IP address of the switch, see Access the switch on
