Verifying Attribute 196 - Cisco Catalyst 2960 series Configuration Manual

What to Do Next
To establishing a session with a router if the AAA server is unreachable, use the aaa accounting system
guarantee-first command. This command guarantees system accounting as the first record, which is the
default condition. In some situations, users might be prevented from starting a session on the console or
terminal connection until after the system reloads, which can take more than 3 minutes.
To establish a console or Telnet session with the router if the AAA server is unreachable when the router
reloads, use the no aaa accounting system guarantee-first command.
