Configuring authentication methods for an ISP domain

The none keyword is not supported in FIPS mode.

When you configure remote authentication, follow these restrictions and guidelines:

• If the authentication method uses a RADIUS scheme and the authorization method does not use a RADIUS scheme, AAA accepts only the authentication result from the RADIUS server. The Access-Accept message from the RADIUS server also includes the authorization information, but the device ignores the information.

• If an HWTACACS scheme is specified, the device uses the entered username for role authentication. If a RADIUS scheme is specified, the device uses username $enabn$ on the RADIUS server for role authentication. The variable n represents a user role level. For more information about user role authentication, see Fundamentals Configuration Guide.

Before configuring authentication methods, complete the following tasks:

1. Determine the access type or service type to be configured. With AAA, you can configure an authentication method for each access type and service type.

2. Determine whether to configure the default authentication method for all access types or service types. The default authentication method applies to all access users. However, the method has a lower priority than the authentication method that is specified for an access type or service type.

1. Enter system view.

   system-view

2. Enter ISP domain view.

   domain isp-name

3. (Optional.) Specify default authentication methods for all types of users.

   authentication default { hwtacacs-scheme hwtacacs-scheme-name [ radius-scheme radius-scheme-name ] [ local ] [ none ] | ldap-scheme ldap-scheme-name [ local ] [ none ] | local [ none ] | none | radius-scheme radius-scheme-name [ hwtacacs-scheme hwtacacs-scheme-name ] [ local ] [ none ] }

   By default, the default authentication method is local.

4. Specify authentication methods for a user type or a service.

   • Specify authentication methods for LAN users.

     authentication lan-access { ldap-scheme ldap-scheme-name [ local ] [ none ] | local [ none ] | none | radius-scheme radius-scheme-name [ local ] [ none ] }

     By default, the default authentication methods are used for LAN users.

   • Specify authentication methods for login users.

     authentication login { hwtacacs-scheme hwtacacs-scheme-name [ radius-scheme radius-scheme-name ] [ local ] [ none ] | ldap-scheme ldap-scheme-name [ local ] [ none ] | local [ none ] | none | radius-scheme radius-scheme-name [ hwtacacs-scheme hwtacacs-scheme-name ] [ local ] [ none ] }

     By default, the default authentication methods are used for login users.

   • Specify authentication methods for portal users.

     authentication portal { ldap-scheme ldap-scheme-name [ local ] [ none ] | local [ none ] | none | radius-scheme radius-scheme-name [ local ] [ none ] }

     By default, the default authentication methods are used for portal users.

   • Specify authentication methods for obtaining a temporary user role.

     authentication super { hwtacacs-scheme hwtacacs-scheme-name | radius-scheme radius-scheme-name } *

     By default, the default authentication methods are used for obtaining a temporary user role.
