Example 2: RADIUS, TACACS+, and local authentication for one user
Goal: To create a user with administrator rights who is authenticated by using all three authentication
methods.
In this example, when the user attempts to log in to the IX10 device, user authentication will occur in
the following order:
1. The user is authenticated by the RADIUS server. If the RADIUS server is unavailable,
2. The user is authenticated by the TACACS+ server. If both the RADIUSand TACACS+ servers are
unavailable,
3. The user is authenticated by the IX10 device using local authentication.
This example uses a FreeRadius 3.0 server running on ubuntu, and a TACACS+ server running on
ubuntu. Server configuration may vary depending on the platforms or type of servers used in your
environment.
