Hi all,

No, even after adding an user (with the add-user.cmd command) still no
authentication required by CLI

That is expected if you are local you already have access to the server configuration so a connection can be negotiated without requiring a username and password.

Yes the http console issues a BASIC authentication popup.

The popup is actually a DIGEST popup

I've checked binding server and management interface to another IP
address available on my card and still no authentication requested by CLI

The CLI will detect that the address is not really remote.

The only test I'm missing at the moment is connecting to a remote AS
instance.

Yes that is the test you are missing.
