AAA Method Commands
16-106 Configuring Security
client
This command configures the default AAA method (plug‐in) for each client service. If a client
service is not registered by this command, requests from that service will fall through to the
overall default method.
For example, if the authentication mode has not been set for Telnet using aaa client telnet ,
then the default AAA method set for Telnet users via the client command will be ignored. Telnet
users will be authenticated by Telnet’s AAA scheme using its own user database.
Syntax
client {vpn | telnet | firewall | console | ssh | ppp}
Syntax of the No Form
The no form of this command removes the default method for the associated client service:
no client {vpn | telnet | firewall | console | ssh | ppp}
Mode
AAA Method configuration: XSR(aaa-method-xx)#
Default
VPN access is enabled, all other access types are disabled.
Example
This example configures RADIUS method sbr as the default method for the client‐service Telnet:
XSR(config)#aaa method radius sbr
XSR(config-aaa-rad)#client telnet
enable
This command enables the current AAA server for RADIUS only.
Syntax
enable
Syntax of the “no” Form
The no form of this command disables the current AAA server service:
no enable
Note: You can specify a username as username@method, allowing that user to explicitly specify
which AAA method to use for that login attempt.
Note: PPP uses AAA only when acting as the authenticator (that is, when validating the peer).
PPP's client-side functionality is authenticated by the peer when acting as the authenicatee.
