CLI Guide

Version Description
9.3(0.0) Supported on the M I/O Aggregator.
Usage Information
By default, the locally congured username password is used. If you congure aaa authentication login
default, Dell Networking Operating System (OS) uses the methods this command denes for login instead.
Methods congured with the aaa authentication login command are evaluated in the order they are
congured. If users encounter an error with the rst method listed, Dell Networking Operating System (OS) applies
the next method congured. If users fail the rst method listed, no other methods are applied. The only exception
is the local method. If the user’s name is not listed in the local database, the next method is applied. If the correct
user name/password combination is not entered, the user is not allowed access to the switch.
NOTE: If authentication fails using the primary method, Dell Networking Operating System (OS)
employs the second method (or third method, if necessary) automatically. For example, if the TACACS
+ server is reachable, but the server key is invalid, Dell Networking Operating System (OS) proceeds to
the next authentication method. The TACACS+ is incorrect, but the user is still authenticated by the
secondary method.
After conguring the aaa authentication login command, congure the login authentication
command to enable the authentication scheme on terminal lines.
Connections to the SSH server work with the following login mechanisms: local, radius, and tacacs.
