Tips
If you have trouble:
Make sure the Caps Lock key is off.
Make sure you entered the correct password. Passwords are case sensitive.
Step 2—Configuring Local AAA Security
The Cisco IOS security model to use on all Cisco devices is authentication, authorization, and
accounting (AAA). AAA provides the primary framework through which you set up access control on
the access server.
Authentication—Who are you?
Authorization—What can you do?
Accounting—What did you do?
In this case study, the same authentication method is used on all interfaces. AAA is set up to use the
local database configured on the Cisco 1604 router. This local database is created with the username
configuration commands.
Note Setting up your AAA security at this point in the configuration process is a matter of “best
practices”; it ensures that the configuration is managed for most effectiveness.
