Answer

The cert Authentication Method with Application set to http and optapi, which can be seen with security login show command, is added by AIQUM.

::> security login show

Vserver: <CLUSTER>
                                                                 Second
User/Group                 Authentication                 Acct   Authentication
Name           Application Method        Role Name        Locked Method
-------------- ----------- ------------- ---------------- ------ --------------
admin          amqp        password      admin            no     none
admin          console     password      admin            no     none
admin          http        cert          admin            -      none
admin          http        password      admin            no     none
admin          ontapi      cert          admin            -      none

admin          service-processor password admin           no     none
