Set Person Private Authentication Mode

In some situations, different persons need to use different authentication modes for accessing the same access point, and a person may need to use different authentication modes for accessing different access points. Setting the private authentication modes for different persons can provide an easy way for them to authenticate by less credentials or enhance the security of some important places by forcing them to use more credentials.

Note:

The person's private authentication mode has higher priority than the existing authentication mode of the device.
