User Guidelines

The default and optional list names created with the aaa authentication enable command are used with the

enable authentication command.

The additional methods of authentication are used only if the previous method returns an error, not if it fails.

To ensure that the authentication succeeds even if all methods return an error, specify none as the final
method in the command line.

All aaa authentication enable default requests sent by the device to a RADIUS or TACACS+ server include

the username $enabx$., where x is the requested privilege level.

Example

The following example sets the enable password for authentication when accessing higher privilege levels.
