atmf remote-login
Overview
Use this command to remotely login to other AMF nodes in order to run
commands as if you were a local user of that node.
Syntax
atmf remote-login [user <
name>
] <
nodename
>
Mode
Privileged Exec (This command will only run at privilege level 15)
Usage
You do not need a valid login on the local device in order to run this command. The
session will take you to the enable prompt on the new device. If the remote login
session exits for any reason (e.g. device reboot) you will be returned to the
originating node.
You can create additional user accounts on nodes. AMF's goal is to provide a
uniform management plane across the whole network, so we recommend you use
the same user accounts on all the nodes in the network.
In reality, though, it is not essential to have the same accounts on all the nodes.
Users can remote login from one node to a second node even if they are logged
into the first node with a user account that does not exist on the second node
(provided that
is disabled and the user account on the first
node has privilege level 15).
Moreover, it is possible to use a RADIUS or server to manage user
authentication, so users can log into AMF nodes using user accounts that are
present on the RADIUS or server, and not present in the local user
databases of the AMF nodes.
The software will not allow you to run multiple remote login sessions. You must
exit an existing session before starting a new one.
If you disconnect from the VTY session without first exiting from the AMF remote
session, the device will keep the AMF remote session open until the
time expires (10 minutes by default). If the exec-timeout time is set to infinity
(
exec-timeout 0 0
), then the device is unable to ever close the remote session. To
avoid this, we recommend you use the
exit
command to close AMF remote
sessions, instead of closing the associated VTY sessions. We also recommend you
avoid setting the exec-timeout to infinity.
Example
To remotely login from node Node10 to Node20, use the following command:
Node10#
atmf remote-login node20
Node20>
Parameter
Description
<name>
The name of a user on the remote node.
<nodename>
The name of the remote AMF node you are connecting to.
