aaa authentication dot1x
If you are not using a RADIUS server, you can use the
local
or
local-case
methods, which access the
local username database to perform authentication. By specifying the
enable
or
line
methods, you can
supply the clients with a password to provide access to the switch.
Use the
show running-config
privileged EXEC command to display the configured lists of
authentication methods.
Examples
This example shows how to enable AAA and how to create an authentication list for 802.1x. This
authentication first tries to contact a RADIUS server. If this action returns an error, the user is allowed
access with no authentication.
Switch(config)#
aaa new-model
Switch(config)#
