Good afternoon,
I'm upgrading from a Cisco 2960 switch to a Cisco Catalyst 3750 (ws-C3750X-24). I have just about everything from the 2960s configuration migrated over to the 3750 except for the login password. On the 2960 the switch boots, displays a banner, then prompts Login password, enter enable and password. Is there was way to make it so after the banner the switch will just ask for a Login password without a username for the 3750?

this can happened if you use login local
instead use login under vty and add password
this will make you access to SW with only password no username require

I was able to get this to work by using the following:
Switch#: conf t
Switch# (config): line con 0
Switch# (config-line): password XXXX
Switch# (config-line): login
Switch# (config-line): end
And I had previously entered the command 'service password-encryption' to encrypt the password in the 'show run'

Hi
Not advisable but if you remove login local, it might work.
conf t
line vty 015
no login local
