authentication method in the Nortel SNAS 4050 domain. If you do not specify the 

auth ID

 in the command, you are prompted for it..

When you first create the method for the domain, you must enter the 
authentication ID. After you have created the method and defined a name for it, 
you can use either the ID or the name to access the method for configuration.

names. However, if you want the user name in the local database to mirror the 
Windows login name, observe Windows username conventions (for example, 
keep the length to no more than 32 characters).

password (

) — the password that applies to the user you specified.
