• For local authentication, create local user accounts, and specify the lan-access service for the
accounts.
• For RADIUS authentication, check that the device and the RADIUS server can reach each other,

If you are using MAC-based accounts, make sure the username and password for each account is
the same as the MAC address of the MAC authentication users.
