Configuring the switch
149
IMPORTANT:
If is enabled, you must login using authentication when
connecting via the console or Telnet/SSH/HTTP/HTTPS. Backdoor for console is always enabled,
so you can connect using
notacacs
and the administrator password even if the backdoor or
secure backdoor are disabled.
If Telnet backdoor is enabled, type in
notacacs
as a backdoor to bypass checking,
and use the administrator password to log into the switch. The switch allows this even if
servers are available.
If secure backdoor is enabled, type in
notacacs
as a backdoor to bypass checking,
and use the administrator password to log into the switch. The switch allows this only if
servers are not available.
