succeeds. This has the same effect as using the command
aaa authentication enable default
enable none
.

User Guidelines
•
The default and optional list names created with the
aaa authentication enable
command are
used with the
enable authentication
command.
•
The additional methods of authentication are used only if the previous method returns an
error, not if it fails. To ensure that the authentication succeeds even if all methods return an
error, specify
none
as the final method in the command line.
•
All
aaa authentication enable default
requests sent by the device to a RADIUS or
server include the username $enabx$., where x is the requested privilege level.
Example
The following example sets the enable password for authentication when accessing higher
privilege levels.

Line Configuration mode command specifies the login

command, use the
no
form of this command.
