Parameters default method-list-name method ... method2 Enter the keyword default followed by the authentication methods to use as the default sequence of methods to be used for the Enable log-in. Default: default enable Enter a text string (up to 16 characters long) to name the list of enabled authentication methods activated at log in. Enter one of the following methods: • enable - use the password defined by the enable password command in the CONFIGURATION mode. • line - use the password defined by the password command in the LINE mode. • none - no authentication. • radius - use the RADIUS server(s) configured with the radius-server host command. • tacacs+ - use the TACACS+ server(s) configured with the tacacs-server host command. (OPTIONAL) In the event of a "no response" from the first method, FTOS applies the next configured method. Defaults Use the enable password. Command Modes CONFIGURATION Command History Version 8.3.3.1 Version 7.6.1.0 Version 7.5.1.0 Version 6.2.1.1 Introduced on S60 Introduced for S-Series Introduced for C-Series Introduced Usage By default, the Enable password is used. If aaa authentication enable default is configured, FTOS Information will use the methods defined for Enable access instead. Methods configured with the aaa authentication enable command are evaluated in the order they are configured. If authentication fails using the primary method, FTOS employs the second method (or third method, if necessary) automatically. For example, if the TACACS+ server is reachable, but the server key is invalid, FTOS proceeds to the next authentication method. The TACACS+ is incorrect, but the user is still authenticated by the secondary method.
