Figure 3-12. Radius Server Information Dialog Box—Modify Authentication Order
To modify the authentication order information of a RADIUS server:
1. Select a switch in the fabric tree.
2. On the Switch menu, click Radius Servers to view the Radius Server
Information dialog box (Figure 3-12).
3. Click the Modify Authentication Order tab, and select the server to be
modified in server list at the top of the dialog box.
4. Make changes to the Device Authentication Order or User Authentication
Order drop-down lists. Select one of the following:
Local—attempts to authenticate using local switch password database.
RADIUS—attempts to authenticate using the RADIUS server (another
computer that provides authentication).
RADIUS Local—attempts to authenticate using the RADIUS server
first, then the local switch as a backup. If the switch cannot contact the
RADIUS server due to a network or some other problem, the switch
authenticates using the local password database.
5. Click Modify Order to save the changes, and then click Close to exit the
dialog box.
