Creating a user account

The following example creates a new user account with the minimally required attributes: name,
role, and password. The account name “brcdUser” has the default user privilege of accessing
commands in the privileged EXEC mode.

1. Issue the <edit-config> RPC to configure the <username> node in the

urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-aaa namespace.

2. Under the <username> node, include the <name>, <role>, and <user-password> leaf

elements to define the user.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<rpc message-id="800" xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0">

<edit-config>

<target>

<running/>

</target>

<config>

<username xmlns="urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-aaa">

<name>brcdUser</name>

<role>user</role>

<user-password>welcome</user-password>

</username>

</config>

</edit-config>

</rpc>

<rpc-reply message-id="800" xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0">

<ok/>

</rpc-reply>

Verifying user account information

The user account information is saved in the switch configuration file.

To verify the user account information, issue the <get-config> RPC with a subtree filter to return
information contained under the <username> node in the urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-aaa
namespace.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<rpc message-id="801" xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0">

<get-config>

<source>

<running/>

</source>

<filter type="subtree">

<username xmlns="urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-aaa">

</filter>

</get-config>

</rpc>

<rpc-reply message-id="801" xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0">

<username xmlns="urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-aaa">

<name>brcdUser</name>

<user-password>San5josE</user-password>

<role>user</role>

</username>

<username xmlns="urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-aaa">
