5000 Series Layer 2/3 Managed Data Center Switch CLI Reference Guide Example The following is an example specifying the default authentication method for a console. (Routing)(Config)#line console (Routing)(Config-line)#login authentication default User Account and Password Commands 4-66 username (Global Config) The username command is used in the Global Config mode in order to add a new user to the local user database. The privilege level, by default, is 1. By using the encrypted keyword, an administrator is allowed to transfer local user passwords between devices without being required to know the passwords. When the password parameter is used in conjunction with the encrypted parameter, the length of the password must be exactly 128 hexadecimal characters. In the event that the password strength feature is enabled, a check for password strength is conducted by the command, after which it returns an appropriate error indicator if the password fails to meet the password strength criteria. Use of the optional parameter override-complexity-check causes the password strength validation to be disabled. The no command is used to return to the default specified by authentication login command. username name {password password [encrypted [override-complexity-check] | level level [encrypted [override-complexity-check]] | override-complexity-check]} | {level level [overridecomplexity-check] password} no username name Parameters name password password level level encrypted override-complexity-check Indicates the name of the user, which must be 1-64 characters in length. Indicates the authentication password for the user, which typically must be 8-64 characters in length. However, this value can be zero in the event that the no password min-length command has been executed. Various special characters may be included in the password, including Indicates the user level, which must be anywhere from 0-15. A level 15 user may assign a level 0 value to another user in order to suspend that user's access. Otherwise, an access level of 1 can be entered for a nonprivileged user (switch > prompt), while an access level of 15 can be entered to provide the highest level of privilege (switch # prompt). If the level is not specified in instances where it is optional, then the privilege level is set at 1. (Optional) Indicates the encrypted password entered, with that password being copied from another switch configuration. (Optional) Indicates that the password strength validation is disabled. Default The default is None. 67
