DGS3100#
local_enable admin
Purpose To promote user level privileges to administrator level privileges.
Syntax
local_enable admin
Description The local_enable admin command enables a user to be granted
administrative privileges on to the Switch. After logging on to the
Switch, users have only ‘user’ level privileges. To gain access to
administrator level privileges, the user may enter this command. The
system then prompts for an authentication password. Possible
authentication methods for this function include TACACS,
TACACS+, RADIUS, user defined server groups, local enable (local
account on the Switch), or no authentication (none). Because
TACACS does 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 Only administrator-level users can issue this command.
Example usage:
To enable administrator privileges on the Switch:
DGS3100# local_enable admin
Password: ******
DGS3100#

Syntax
config admin local_enable
Description The config admin local_enable command changes the locally
enabled password for the local_enable admin command. When a
user chooses the ‘local_enable’ method to promote user level
privileges to administrator privileges, the user is prompted to enter
the password configured here.
After entering the config admin local_enable command, the user is
prompted to enter the old password, then a new password in a string
