none: Disables authentication.
password: Performs local password authentication.
scheme: Performs AAA authentication. For more information about AAA, see Security Configuration
Guide.
Usage guidelines
Only users assigned with the network-admin or level-15 user role can execute this command. Other
users cannot execute this command, even if they are granted the right to execute this command.
When the authentication mode is none, a user can log in without authentication. To improve device
security, use the password or scheme authentication mode.
In VTY line view, this command is associated with the protocol inbound command. If you specify a
non-default value for one of the two commands, the other command uses the default setting,
regardless of the setting in VTY line class view.
An authentication mode change does not take effect for the current session. It takes effect for
subsequent login sessions.
