Optional Methods — User authentication methods. Possible options are:
None — No user authentication occurs.
Local — User authentication occurs at the device level; the device checks the user name and 
password for authentication. 
RADIUS — User authentication occurs at the RADIUS server. For more information about 
RADIUS servers, see "Configuring RADIUS Settings." 
TACACS+ — User authentication occurs at the TACACS+ server. For more information 
about TACACS+ servers, see "Configuring TACACS+ Settings."

NOTE: 
User authentication occurs in the order the methods are selected. If an error occurs during the

selected, the user is authenticated first locally and then via an external server.
