Chapter 9 Configuring Switch-Based Authentication
Configuring the Switch for Local Authentication and Authorization
To disable AAA, use the no aaa new-model global configuration command. To disable authorization,
use the no aaa authorization {network | exec} method1 global configuration command.
Note To secure the switch for HTTP access by using AAA methods, you must configure the switch with the
ip http authentication aaa global configuration command. Configuring AAA authentication does not
secure the switch for HTTP access by using AAA methods.
For more information about the i
p http authentication command, see the Cisco IOS Security Command
Reference, Release 12.2.

• For name, specify the user ID as one word. Spaces and quotation
marks are not allowed.
• (Optional) For level, specify the privilege level the user has after
gaining access. The range is 0 to 15. Level 15 gives privileged EXEC
mode access. Level 0 gives user EXEC mode access.
• For encryption-type, enter 0 to specify that an unencrypted password
follows. Enter 7 to specify that a hidden password follows.
• For password, specify the password the user must enter to gain access
to the switch. The password must be from 1 to 25 characters, can
