Initialize and Setup
Login Order of
Operations
When a user attempts to log into the Avaya switch, the switch will
first check the local user accounts for the entered user name and
password. If found, the user is logged in using the local settings for
that account.
If no local account is found and RADIUS is enabled/configured, the
switch will send an Access Request message to the primary RADIUS
server in an attempt to authenticate the user remotely. If the user’s
login is found and correct, then the RADIUS server responds with an
Access Accept message that includes the user’s privileges. Provided
the user account has the right Management Type (for example: Web
Agent if you are trying to log in to the embedded Web Agent), the
user is granted access.
If the user’s login is incorrect or does not exist, then a Access Reject
message is sent to the switch and the user is denied access to the
switch.
If the RADIUS server does not respond, the Avaya switch will
attempt to use the Secondary server if it is configured, and if not,
will continue to try the Primary. If the Secondary server is
configured, the switch will alternate between the two servers on
subsequent retries. It will wait the number of seconds specified in
the retry interval and try as many times as specified in the retry
time.
