Configuring More Than One Authentication Method (SRC CLI)
Tasks to configure more than one authentication method at the SRC CLI are:
Configuring Authentication Order
To configure the order in which to use authentication servers:
From configuration mode, access the [system] hierarchy level.
Specify the authentication order.
[edit system]user@host# set authentication-order [(radius | tacplus | password)]Specify one or more of the following in the preferred order, from first authentication method tried to last tried:
radius—Verify the user using RADIUS authentication services.
tacplus—Verify the user using TACACS+ authentication services.
password—Verify the user using the password configured for the user with the authentication statement at the [edit system login user] hierarchy level.
If you do not include the authentication-order statement, users are verified based on their configured passwords.
The SRC software looks at the local password file even if the RADIUS server sends an Access-Reject.
Configuring TACACS+ or RADIUS Authentication
To configure the SRC software to try to authenticate users through TACACS+ and, if the TACACS+ server is unavailable, to use password authentication:
Specify the following authentication order:
[edit]user@host# set system authentication-order [tacplus password]or
[edit]user@host# set system authentication-order tacplus
To configure the SRC software to try to authenticate users through RADIUS and, if the RADIUS server is unavailable, to use password authentication:
Specify the following authentication order:
[edit]user@host# set system authentication-order [radius password]or
[edit]user@host# set system authentication-order radius
Configuring TACACS+ and RADIUS Authentication
To configure the SRC software to try to authenticate users through TACACS+, and if the TACACS+ server is unavailable, to use RADIUS authentication; and then, if the RADIUS server is unavailable, to use password authentication:
Specify the following authentication order:
[edit]user@host# set system authentication-order [tacplus radius password]or
[edit]user@host# set system authentication-order [tacplus radius]
To configure the SRC software to try to authenticate users through RADIUS and, if the RADIUS server is unavailable, to use TACACS+ authentication; and then, if the TACACS+ server is unavailable, to use password authentication:
Specify the following authentication order:
[edit]user@host# set system authentication-order [radius tacplus password]or
[edit]user@host# set system authentication-order [radius tacplus]
