Admin Guide

After you enable enhanced secure mode, the system can provide role-based access levels, stronger
password requirements, and stronger rules on password length, password complexity, password
change intervals, password reuse, and password maximum age use.
After you disable enhanced secure mode, the authentication, access-level, and password
requirements work similarly to any of the existing commercial releases.
Procedure
1. Enter Global Configuration mode:
enable
configure terminal
2. Enable enhanced secure mode:
boot config flags enhancedsecure-mode
3. (Optional) Disable enhanced secure mode:
no boot config flags enhancedsecure-mode
4. Save the configuration:
save config
Note:
The save config command saves the configuration file with the filename configured
as the primary configuration filename in boot config. Use the command show boot
config choice to view the current primary and backup configuration filenames.
5. Restart the switch:
boot [config WORD<1–99>][-y]
Note:
If you enter the boot command with no arguments, you cause the switch to start using
the current boot choices defined by the boot config choice command.
If you enter a boot command and the configuration filename without the directory, the
device uses the configuration file from /intflash/.
Example
Enable enhanced secure mode:
Switch:1>enable
Switch:1#configure terminal
Switch:1(config)#boot config flags enhancedsecure-mode
Switch:1(config)#save config
Switch:1(config)#exit
Switch:1(config)#boot config /intflash/config.cfg -y
