Vty Line Remote Authentication And Authorization - Dell C9000 Series Networking Configuration Manual

NOTE: If a VTY user logs in with RADIUS authentication, the privilege level is applied from the RADIUS
server only if you configure RADIUS authentication.
The following example shows how to allow or deny a Telnet connection to a user. Users see a login prompt
even if they cannot log in. No access class is configured for the VTY line. It defaults from the local database.
NOTE: For more information, refer to
Example of Configuring VTY Authorization Based on Access Class Retrieved from a Local Database (Per

VTY Line Remote Authentication and
Authorization
The system retrieves the access class from the VTY line.
The Dell Networking OS takes the access class from the VTY line and applies it to ALL users. The system does
not need to know the identity of the incoming user and can immediately apply the access class. If the
authentication method is RADIUS, TACACS+, or line, and you have configured an access class for the VTY
line, the system immediately applies it. If the access-class is set to deny all or deny for the incoming subnet,
the system closes the connection without displaying the login prompt. The following example shows how to
deny incoming connections from subnet 10.0.0.0 without displaying a login prompt. The example uses
TACACS+ as the authentication mechanism.
