Use the Authentication List Summary page to view and configure the authentication lists used for management access and port-based (IEEE 802.1X) access to the system. An authentication list specifies which authentication method(s) to use to validate the credentials of a user who attempts to access the device. Several authentication lists are preconfigured on the system. These are default lists, and they cannot be deleted. Additionally, the List Name and Access Type settings for the default lists cannot be changed.
