Method List
Select a server object from the drop-down list box. You can create a
server object in the AAA Server screen.
The NXC authenticates the users using the databases (in the local user
database or the external authentication server) in the order they appear
in this screen.
If two accounts with the same username exist on two authentication
servers you specify, the NXC does not continue the search on the second
authentication server when you enter the username and password that
doesn’t match the one on the first authentication server.
