Multiple Authentication Services: Login Validation
When the NetBrain Administrator has configured multiple external authentication services (for example, TACACS+ and Active Directory), How does Netbrain determine which service gets preference?

Solution
When each user logs into the NetBrain platform for the very first time, NetBrain will attempt to validate credentials against all external authentication services in the order in which they appear on screen in the user interface (top-to-bottom).
Following successful login, the authentication service used will be paired to that user and all future login attempts will automatically use that authentication service with priority.
