Command Usage
• There are three authentication modes provided by the switch itself at
login:
-
login
selects authentication by a single global password as specified
by the
password
line configuration command. When using this
method, the management interface starts in Normal Exec (NE)
mode.
-
login local
selects authentication via the user name and password
specified by the
username
command (i.e., default setting). When
using this method, the management interface starts in Normal Exec
(NE) or Privileged Exec (PE) mode, depending on the user’s
privilege level (0 or 15 respectively).
-
no login
selects no authentication. When using this method, the
management interface starts in Normal Exec (NE) mode.
• This command controls login authentication via the switch itself. To
configure user names and passwords for remote authentication
servers, you must use the RADIUS or TACACS software installed on
those servers.
