Setting up local user accounts
• 5 – Read Only level
The default privilege level is 0. If you want to assign Super User level access to the account, you can
enter the command without privilege 0, as shown in the command example above.
The password | nopassword parameter indicates whether the user must enter a password. If you
specify password, enter the string for the user's password. You can enter up to 48 characters for
<password-string>. If strict password enforcement is enabled on the device, you must enter a
minimum of eight characters containing the following combinations:
• At least two upper case characters
• At least two lower case characters
• At least two numeric characters
• At least two special characters
NOTE
You must be logged on with Super User access (privilege level 0) to add user accounts or configure
other access parameters.
To display user account information, enter the following command.
TurboIron#show users
Syntax: show users
Local accounts with encrypted passwords
You can create local user accounts with MD5 encrypted passwords using one of the following
methods:
• Issuing the service password-encryption command after creating the local user account with a
username <user-string> [privilege <privilege-level>] password 0 command
NOTE
To create an encrypted all-numeric password, use the username <user-string>
create-password command.
If you create a local user account using the commands discussed in “Local user accounts with
unencrypted passwords” on page 82, you can issue the service password-encryption command to
encrypt all passwords that have been previously entered.
Example
TurboIron(config)#username wonka privilege 5 password willy
TurboIron(config)#service password-encryption
Create password option
As an alternative to the commands above, the create-password option allows you to create an
encrypted password in one line of command. Also, this new option allows you to create an
all-numeric, encrypted password.
You can enter.
TurboIron(config)#username wonka privilege 5 create-password willy
