Enabling The Default User Role Function; Assigning User Roles To Remote Aaa Authentication Users; Assigning User Roles To Local Aaa Authentication Users - HP FlexFabric 7900 Series Configuration Manual

Enabling the default user role function

An AAA authentication user must have at least one user role to log in to the device. The default user role
function assigns the network-operator user role to a local or remote AAA authenticated user if the AAA
server has not authorized the user to use any user roles. Without the function, AAA authenticated users
cannot access the system if they have no user role authorization.
You can configure the default user role function to enable an AAA authenticated user that has not been
assigned any user role to log in with the default user role network-operator.
To enable the default user role function for AAA authentication users:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enable the default user role
function.

Assigning user roles to remote AAA authentication users

For remote AAA authentication users, user roles are configured on the remote authentication server. For
information about configuring user roles for RADIUS users, see the RADIUS server documentation. For
HWTACACS users, the role configuration must use the roles="role- 1 role-2 ... role-n" format, where user
roles are space separated. For example, configure roles="level-0 level-1 level-2" to assign level-0, level- 1 ,
and level-2 to an HWTACACS user.
NOTE:
To be compatible with privilege-based access control, the device automatically converts privilege-based
•
user levels (0 to 15) assigned by an AAA server to RBAC user roles (level-0 to level-15).
If the AAA server assigns a privilege-based user level and a user role to a user, the user can use the
•
collection of commands and resources accessible to both the user level and the user role.

Assigning user roles to local AAA authentication users

Configure user roles for local AAA authentication users in their local user accounts. Every local user has
a default user role. If this default user role is not suitable, delete it.
To assign a user role to a local user:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Create a local user and
enter local user view.
