DGS-3627:admin#
enable admin
Purpose This command is used to enter the administrator level privilege
Syntax
enable admin
Description 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. Since TACACS, XTACACS and RADIUS do not
support the "enable" function by their selves,, if the user wants to use either one of these
three protocols to enable authentication, the user must create a special account on the server
host first, which has a username of "enable", and then configure its password as the enable
password to support the "enable" function.
This command can not be used when the authentication policy is disabled.
For switches with 3-levels of privilege, this command can be used by users with user level
and operator level privileges to access the administrator privilege level.
Parameters None.
Restrictions None.
Example usage:
To enable administrator level privileges:
DGS-3627:user# enable admin
Password:********
DGS-3627:user#
config admin local_enable
Purpose This command is used to configure the local enable password of the administrator level
privilege.
Syntax
config admin local_enable
Description Configure the local enable password for the enable command. When the user chooses the
“local_enable” method to promote the privilege level, the enable password of the 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. In this case, the user can only input a plain text
password. If the password is present in the command, the user can select to input the
password in plain text or encrypted form. The encryption algorithm is based on SHA-1.
Parameters None.
Restrictions Only Administrator level users can issue this command.
Example usage:
