Configuring Authentication Methods
Users can choose between having a single authentication method such as
RADIUS or an authentication method where a Local authentication service is
used in addition to the RADIUS, LDAP, or TACACS+ server. These options are
listed when you configure the Digi CM for authentication. To configure a Digi
CM for authentication, do the following:
1. Access the web interface.
2. Under the Serial Port heading choose Configuration.
3. Choose All or an Individual port > Authentication.
4. From the drop down menu, choose an authentication method. A configura-
tion screen for that particular authentication method is displayed.
The following screenshot displays the parameters for setting up a RADIUS
server as the primary authentication server, then Local authentication if the
primary authentication method fails.
5. Fill in the appropriate fields.
6. Choose Save to Flash and Apply changes.
