If you use local authentication, does that mean that the user account needs to be created on the AC? Can AC synchronize user account information with other servers?

MAC address: The device uses a user's MAC address as the user name for authentication. The device can also use the MAC address or a user-defined character string as the user password.
•Fixed user name: Regardless of users' MAC addresses, all users use a fixed name and password designated on the access device for authentication. As multiple users can be authenticated on the same interface, all users requiring MAC address authentication on the interface use the same fixed user name. The server only needs to configure one user account to meet the authentication demands of all users. This applies to a network environment with reliable clients.
•DHCP option: The device replaces a user's MAC address with the obtained user DHCP option and a fixed password as identity information for authentication. In this mode, the device must support MAC authentication triggering through DHCP packets.

Password Authentication Protocol (PAP) is a two-way handshake authentication protocol. It transmits passwords in plain text format in RADIUS packets.

Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) is a three-way handshake authentication protocol. It transmits only user names using RADIUS packets, but does not transmit passwords. CHAP is more secure and reliable than PAP. If high security is required, CHAP is recommended.
