Configuring Authentication
This chapter explains how to configure the authentication portion of Cisco’s authentication,

Enable, Login and iSCSI authentication, which use AAA services.
The following tasks are covered:
• Prerequisite Tasks, page 9-2
• Using Authentication, page 9-2
• Configuration Tasks, page 9-4
• Configuring Authentication Services, page 9-12
• Creating Named Server Groups, page 9-15

The AAA function is always enabled for the storage router; it cannot be disabled.
Authentication parameters can be configured using CLI commands, as described in this chapter, or via
the web-based GUI. To access the web-based GUI, point your browser to the storage router’s
management interface IP address. After logging on, click the Help link to access online help for the GUI.
