"local" is not allowed per the spec. In more recent software loads, you may
(I don't know on 2950) have the ability of a local radius server though, and
that's for 802.1X deployments without needing an ACS server.

The IOS RADIUS server is on 12.4 boxes (routers). Nothing on a single
switch though. No local.

Hi:

I am having difficulty utilizing a Cisco 2950 Switch. I am trying to setup
802.1x but instead of using radius I am trying to set it to use local
authentication. Is that possible? I am not getting the pop up box. I have
set the local my local lan connection to both MD5 first then to PEAP and I
still don't get a prompt. Is it possible to use local and not use radius?

Thanks

Adam
