enable admin
Used to pro
mote user level privileges to administrator level privileges.
Purpose
enabl
e admin
Syntax
This
command is for users who have logged on to the Switch on the
normal user level to become promoted to the administrator level. 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.
