Because local authentication is the default authentication method for login users, you only need to
configure a local user on the switch.
•
To allow the local user to log in to the switch, authorize the local user to use the terminal service.
•
To allow the local user to use all commands, assign the user role network-admin to the local user.
The user role of a login user depends on the user role setting for the local user. It is
network-operator by default when local scheme authentication is used.
