Creating a Local Netlogin Account—User Name and Password Only
To create a local netlogin user name and password, use the following command and specify the
<user-
name>
parameter:
create netlogin local-user <user-name> {encrypted <password>} {vlan-vsa [[{tagged |
untagged} [<vlan_name>] | <vlan_tag>]]}
User names are not case-sensitive; passwords are case-sensitive. User names must have a minimum of 1
character and a maximum of 32 characters. Passwords must have a minimum of 0 characters and a
maximum of 32 characters. If you use RADIUS for authentication, Extreme Networks recommends that
you use the same user name and password for both local authentication and RADIUS authentication.
If you attempt to create a user name with more than 32 characters, the switch displays the following
messages:
%% Invalid name detected at '^' marker.
%% Name cannot exceed 32 characters.
If you attempt to create a password with more than 32 characters, the switch displays the following
message after you re-enter the password:
Password cannot exceed 32 characters
The encrypted option is used by the switch to encrypt the password. Do not use this option through the
command line interface (CLI). After you enter a local netlogin user name, press [Enter]. The switch
prompts you twice to enter the password.
The following example:
●
Creates a new local netlogin user name
●
Creates a password associated with the local netlogin user name.
The following is a sample display from this command:
create netlogin local-user megtest
password: <Enter the password. The switch does not display the password.>
Reenter password: <Re-enter the password. The switch does not display the password.>
For information about specifying the destination VLAN, see the next section “ Specifying a Destination
VLAN .”
