The switch ships with a default configuration defining the local RADIUS Server as the primary
authentication source (default users are admin with superuser privileges and operator with

local switch RADIUS Server as the secondary user authentication source. To use an external
RADIUS Server as either a primary or secondary authentication source, it must be specified
appropriately.
