access to SSH using aaa

[aconticisco]

Hello,

I set up a user with privilege level of 15 and enabled aaa local authentication on the vty line. This only problem I am having is that once I try to log to the router via ssh I get prompted fro username and password ( this is normal) however I then get into view mode and not directly to enable mode therfore I have to type enable and the password each time.

Any ideas why this happens ?

Thank You

The level 15 access is granted for the users ability to access that level and it does not determine what level they should go into at login. If you want the username to access level 15 at login try adding the privilege level under the vty's.

line vty 0 4

privilevege level 15

setting privilege level 15 oin the vty lines worked and entered privileged mode after user pass authentication.

However I configured another user with privilige 1, what will be his privilege now that the vty lines are privilige level 15 when he connects through ssh

If you have configured the vty to use privilege 15 then all users who login on vty will have privilege level 15. For some users to get level 15 and others to get level 1 you should remove level 15 from the vty and should configure aaa authorization.
