name/password authentication.
Considerations for Configuring End User Accounts
A maximum of 10 end-user IDs are supported on the switch.
The switch does not automatically validate configurations.
VSE SmartConnect software supports end-user support for Telnet access to the switch. As

If RADIUS authentication is used, the user password on the Radius server overrides the
user password on the switch. Also note that the password change command only modifies
the switch password and has no effect on the user password on the Radius server.
RADIUS authentication and user password cannot be used concurrently to access the
switch.
