AAA authentication method list

Switch(config)# aaa authentication login abc group myauthservers local
Switch(config)# line vty 0 15
Switch(config-line)# login authentication abc

 

I'm confused with this method list, local username is the lastresort for authentication but why line vty also configured to use method list abc? why not put line in method list ?

You apply the name of the AAA list so it will apply the applicable access methods sequentially in the way you have stated it.

If you don't use or specify any named list whatsoever and and use the default list then this it would be by default applicable to the line interfaces, However any named AAA list other than the default needs to be applied manually to these lines.
