Default Configuration
The
enable password
command is the default authentication login method.
This is the same as entering the command
aaa authentication enable default
enable
.
On a console, the enable password is used if a password exists. If no password
is set, authentication still succeeds. This is the same as entering the
command
aaa authentication enable default enable none
.
Command Mode
Global Configuration mode
User Guidelines
The default and additional list names created with the
aaa authentication
enable
command are used with the
enable authentication
command.
All
aaa authentication enable default
requests sent by the device to a
RADIUS or server include the username
$enabx$
., where
x
is the
requested privilege level.
Create a list by entering the
aaa authentication enable
list-name method
command where list-name is any character string used to name this list. The
method argument identifies the list of methods that the authentication
algorithm tries, in the given sequence.
The additional methods of authentication are used only if the previous
method returns an error, not if it fails. Specify
none
as the final method in the
command line to ensure that the authentication succeeds even if all methods
return an error.
Example
The following example sets the enable password for authentication for
accessing higher privilege levels.
Console(config)#
aaa authentication enable default enable
