5-27 enable admin
Description
This command is used to enter the administrator level privilege. Promote the "user" privilege level
to "admin" level. When the user enters this command, the authentication method tacacs, xtacacs,
tacacs+, user-defined server groups, local_enable or none will be used to authenticate the user.
Because TACACS, XTACACS and RADIUS don't support "enable" function in itself, if user wants
to use either one of these 3 protocols to do enable authentication, user must create a special
account on the server host first, which has a username "enable" and then configure its password
as the enable password to support "enable" function.
This command can not be used when authentication policy is disabled.
Format
enable admin
Parameters
None.
Restrictions
None.
Example
To enable administrator lever privilege:
DES-3200-28/ME:puser#enable admin
Command: enable admin
PassWord:******
Success.
DES-3200-28/ME:admin#
5-28 config admin local_enable
Description
This command is used to config the local enable password of administrator level privilege. When
the user chooses the “local_enable” method to promote the privilege level, the enable password of
local device is needed. When the password information is not specified in the command, the
system will prompt the user to input the password interactively. For this case, the user can only
input the plain text password. If the password is present in the command, the user can select to
input the password in the plain text form or in the encrypted form. The encryption algorithm is
based on SHA-I.
Format
config admin local_enable {encrypt [plain_text | sha_1] <password>}
