etsysAAAMgmtRemoteAuthProtocol
Module: ENTERASYS-AAA-POLICY-MIB
OID (symbolic): ENTERASYS-AAA-POLICY-MIB::etsysAAAMgmtRemoteAuthProtocol
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.51.1.1.1.1.2
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: AAAProtocol
Access: read-write
Description: The type of remote AAA protocol to be used for authenticating users seeking management access via the associated protocol.
When this object has the default value of any(1) the remote AAA protocol will be selected using the following precedence order TACACS+, RADIUS. A protocol will be selected if, and only if, it is enabled.
When a remote authentication protocol has been consulted, and the protocol times out, the local password file will be used to authenticate the user.
If no remote AAA protocol is selected, or the selected remote AAA protocol is not enabled, the local password file will be used to authenticate the user.
What is etsysAAAMgmtRemoteAuthProtocol?
This setting selects which remote AAA protocol, TACACS+ or RADIUS, the switch should use to authenticate users trying to gain management access, with a documented fallback to the local password file if the chosen protocol is unavailable or times out. A network administrator configures this to centralize login authentication for switch management (SSH, console, web UI, etc.) against a corporate TACACS+ or RADIUS server instead of relying on locally stored passwords on every device. With the default value of any(1), the switch tries TACACS+ first and falls back to RADIUS, only using the local password file if neither enabled remote protocol responds.
