Groups define user access rights. See Authentication groups for information about configuring
groups.
a. Add a group to the user. For example, to add the admin group to the user:
(config auth user new_user> add group end admin
(config auth user new_user)>
Note Every user must be configured with at least one group.
b. (Optional) Add additional groups by repeating the add group command:
(config auth user new_user> add group end serial
(config auth user new_user)>
To remove a group from a user:
a. Use the show command to determine the index number of the group to be deleted:
(config auth user new_user> show group
0 admin
1 serial
(config auth user new_user>
b. Type the following:
(config auth user new_user)> del group n
(config auth user new_user)>
Where n is index number of the authentication method to be deleted. For example, to
delete the serial group as displayed by the example show command, above:
(config auth user new_user)> del group 1
(config auth user new_user)>
7. (Optional) Add SSH keys for the user to use passwordless SSH login:
a. Change to the user's ssh_key node:
(config auth user new_user)> ssh_key
(config auth user new_user ssh_key)>
b. Add the key by using the ssh_key command and pasting or typing a public encryption key
that this user can use for passwordless SSH login:
(config auth user new_user ssh_key)> ssh_key key
(config auth user new_user ssh_key)>
8. (Optional) Configure two-factor authentication for SSH, telnet, and serial console login:
