authentication-method-ipv6

Function

The authentication-method-ipv6 command configures the authentication method on a BAS interface for IPv6 users.

The undo authentication-method-ipv6 command restores the default setting.

By default, PPP authentication is applied on BAS interfaces for IPv6 users.

This command is supported only on the NetEngine 8000 F1A.

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

Before configuring the authentication method of a BAS interface, you must configure the user access type of the BAS interface using the access-type command. You can use a combination of certain authentication methods. Note that web authentication cannot be used together with fast authentication and that binding authentication cannot be used together with any other authentication methods.

Precautions

In VS mode, this command is supported only by the admin VS.

To change the current authentication mode to PPP authentication, run the authentication-method-ipv6 command when the interface is in the idle state; otherwise, the login users on this BAS interface may be forced offline.

Example

# Configure PPP authentication on GE 0/1/9.
