At least one of up to four methods that UNIVERGE WL
Control System uses to handle authentication. Specify one
or more of the following methods in priority order.
UNIVERGE WL Control System applies multiple methods
in the order you enter them.
A method can be one of the following:
• local—Uses the local database of usernames and user
groups on the UNIVERGE WL Controller for
authentication.
• server-group-name—Uses the defined group of
RADIUS servers for authentication. You can enter up to
four names of existing RADIUS server groups as
methods.
• none—For users with administrative access only,
UNIVERGE WL Control System performs no
authentication, but prompts for a username and
password and accepts any combination of entries,
including blanks.
Note: The authentication method none you can specify for
administrative access is different from the fallthru
authentication type none, which applies only to network
access. The authentication method none allows access to
the UNIVERGE WL Controller by an administrator. The
fallthru authentication type none denies access to a network
user. (See “set service-profile auth-fallthru” on page 337.)
For more information, see “Usage.”
Note. It is recommended that you change the default setting unless the
UNIVERGE WL Controller is in a secure physical location.
