Configuring the local database accounts
The final step in configuring the authentication and authorization service in SmartWare is to set up local user
accounts. The local database—which is queried with the AAA method local as described previously—can con-
tain administrator and operator accounts. For example, to grant access to the local SmartNode if all Radius
servers are down or the network is not reachable, you can create an emergency user in the local database so that
you can still access the SmartNode. Perform the following steps to configure the local accounts.
Mode: Configure
Step
1 node(cfg)#[no] administrator name pass-
word password
2 node(cfg)#[no] operator name password
password
3 node(Radius)[name]#shared-secret
authentication secret
4 node(pf-auth)[name]#show accounts
Example: Create an administrator and an operator account
SN>enable
SN#configure
SN(cfg)#administrator meier password pencil
SN(cfg)#operator james password ""
SN(cfg)#show accounts
Administrator accounts:
meier
Operator accounts:
james
