I have started to add a Cisco device
to my configuration but I am running into a
"configuration" issue when changing the password of the
local admin account and the enable password.
Our normal configuration is that all
logins are done through external accounts checked by the AAA server.
This works fine. The Cisco device is therefore configured to ask for
an username first. Goal is to add the Cisco device to PMP and
configure the change of the password for the admin account and the
enable password.
The admin account on the device is
always PRIV1. The manual procedure would be to establish an SSH
session with the device using admin and the password. Type enable
and then the password to get PRIV15 when needed.
How do I configure my device in PMP?
(I changed the IP address obviously)
According to the manual I need to select something to switch to
enable (PRIV15) when the account that not have that level before
changing the password. But in the AAA logging I see that once the
session is established, with admin and the corresponding password, the
switch to enable mode is done with sending the username again followed
by the password. The Cisco device is expecting the password and not
the user name. Result is an error on the switch as the username is
send as the password while the password ends up on the CLI.
How can I configure the resource correctly?
When I change the default priviliged level of the admin account to
15 the password change works flawlessy.
