Console Login Authentication Modes

Three authentication modes are available for console port login: none, password, and scheme.

z

none: Requires no username and password at the next login through the console port. This mode

is insecure.

z

password: Requires password authentication at the next login through the console port. Keep

your password. If you lose your password, see H3C Series Ethernet Switches Login Password

Recovery Manual for password recovery.

z

scheme: Requires username and password authentication at the next login through the console

port. Authentication falls into local authentication and remote authentication. To use local

authentication, configure a local user and related parameters. To use remote authentication,

configure the username and password on the remote authentication server. For more information

about authentication modes and parameters, see AAA Configuration in the Security

Configuration Guide. Keep your username and password. If you lose your password, see H3C

Series Ethernet Switches Login Password Recovery Manual for password recovery.
