show authen parameter
This command will display the authentication parameters currently configured on the Switch,
including the response timeout and user authentication attempts.
This command will display the following fields:
Response timeout – The configured time allotted for the Switch to wait for a response of
authentication from the user attempting to log in from the command line interface or telnet
interface.
User attempts: The maximum number of attempts the user may try to become authenticated
by the Switch, before being locked out.
None.
None.
: 3
Used to promote normal user's privilege to administrator's.
enable admin
This command is for users who have logged on to the Switch with the normal user privilege
and can be Switched to the admin privilege. After logging on to the Switch users will have
only user level privileges. To gain access to administrator level privileges, the user will enter
this command and will have to enter an authentication password. Possible authentication
methods for this function include TACACS, XTACACS, TACACS+, RADIUS, user defined
server groups, local enable (local account on the Switch), or no authentication (none).
Because XTACACS and TACACS do not support the enable function, the user must create a
special account on the server host which has the username "enable", and a password
configured by the administrator that will support the "enable" function. This function becomes
inoperable when the authentication policy is disabled.
None.
None.
