ENABLE AUTHENTICATION
Syntax
enable authentication
Parameters
None.
Description
This command enables TACACS+ or RADIUS manager account
authentication on your switch. You must use the manager accounts you
defined on the TACACS+ or RADIUS server to manage the switch when
you enable manager authentication. To select an authenticator protocol,
refer to “SET AUTHENTICATION” on page 705.
Note
If you are using the RADIUS authentication protocol for 802.1x Port-
based Network Access Control but not for manager account
authentication, you do not need to use this command. Even when
the RADIUS manager account feature is disabled, the switch still
has access to the RADIUS configuration information for 802.1x port-
based access control.
Example
The following command enables manager account authentication on your
switch:
enable authentication
