aaa authentication login

Sets the authentication method for users logging in to ANS6.

aaa authentication login <method> [ <method> ]
 
no aaa authentication login
 

• method--must be one of the following:
• radius--authentication handled by RADIUS server
• tacacs+--authentication handled by TACACS+ server (requires PAP, or password authorization protocol, in the server configuration)

Must be in configuration mode (config) that requires privileged-level access.

Use once (but can specify multiple method arguments).

The default authentication scheme is local.

If multiple method values are specified, the device will try the first method in the list. If it fails due to a network failure condition, the device will attempt to authenticate by the next means in the list. If the authentication attempt fails for any other reason, the user will be denied access.

The method local (authentication handled by local device) is always appended to the list and therefore cannot be entered on the command line.

The no form of the command sets the authentication scheme to the default.
