Configur ing Login Authentication Using AAA

Aogin aut henticatio n Is used to e8tbl e AAA a ethen ticat ion regardless of the supported log Ip authrnticaPion method you decide to use. You create one or more lists of authentication methods that will be tried at login and apply them to the login authentication command. To configure a login authentication list using AAA, use this command:

R8(config)#aaa authentication login {default | list-name}method1 [method2...]

list-name is a character string you use to name the list you are creating. The method arguments refer to the actual method the authentication algorithm tries. If you specify more than one method of authentication, they are used only if the previous method returns an error, not if it fails;. You can use the none keyword as the final method in the command line to specify that authenticat ion should succeed even if all other defined methods return an error. By using the default: keyword, you can specify a default list that is applied to all interfaces automatically. Table 13-1 lists the wide variety of supported login authentication methods.
