Each additional authentication method is used only if the previous method returns
an error, not if it fails. To ensure that the authentication succeeds even if all
methods return an error, specify none as the final method in the command line.

enable Uses the enable password for authentication.
local Uses the locally defined usernames for authentication.
none Uses no authentication.
radius Uses a list of RADIUS servers for authentication.
