Chapter 8 Configuring Switch-Based Authentication
Protecting Access to Privileged EXEC Commands
•
If you want to use username and password pairs, but you want to store them centrally on a server
instead of locally, you can store them in a database on a security server. Multiple networking devices
can then use the same database to obtain user authentication (and, if necessary, authorization)
information. For more information, see the
“Controlling Switch Access with ” section on
Protecting Access to Privileged EXEC Commands
A simple way of providing terminal access control in your network is to use passwords and assign
privilege levels. Password protection restricts access to a network or network device. Privilege levels
define what commands users can enter after they have logged into a network device.
Note
For complete syntax and usage information for the commands used in this section, see the
Cisco IOS
Security Command Reference, Release 12.2
