enable admin
Purpose Used to promote user level privileges to administrator level privileges.
Syntax enable admin
Description 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.
Parameters None.
Restrictions None.
#enable admin
Password: ******
#
config admin local_enable
Purpose Used to configure the local enable password for administrator level privileges.
Syntax config admin local_enable
Description This command is used to configure the locally enabled password for the
enable admin command. When a user chooses the “local_enable” method to
promote user level privileges to administrator privileges, he or she will be
prompted to enter the password configured here that is set locally on the
switch.
