  • Passcode: Blocks users from accessing the device until they enter a valid passcode on a web login page. Refer to Passcodes for user authentication.
  • Captive Portal: Authenticates the users in a VLAN through external Web Authentication (Captive Portal user authentication) mode.
  • None: Blocks users from accessing the device until they press the Login button. A username and password or passcode is not required. Refer to Automatic authentication.
