exit-on-reject — when enabled, and if one of the AAA methods configured in the
authentication order sends a reject, then the next method in the order will not be tried.
If the exit-on-reject keyword is not specified and one AAA method sends a reject,
the next AAA method will be attempted. If in this process all the AAA methods are
exhausted, it will be considered a reject.
A rejection is distinct from an unreachable authentication server. When the
exit-on-reject keyword is specified, authorization and accounting will only use the
method that provided an affirmation authentication; only if that method is no longer
readable or is removed from the configuration will other configured methods be
attempted. If the local keyword is the first authentication and:
• exit-on-reject is configured and the user does not exist, the user will not be
authenticated
• the user is authenticated locally, then other methods, if configured, will be used
for authorization and accounting
• the user is configured locally but without console access, login will be denied
