Using SNMP to verify AAA Authentication

GreatBeach
Community Member

I am using a script to poll through our switches for minimum switch compliance (code version, temp, etc..).  Sometimes switches are put online without AAA configured and I would like to track when this happens.   I would like to pull this information via SNMP instead of logging into the switch - is this possible?

 

I found some information for 'CISCO-AAA-SESSION-MIB' but it does not work for any of our models.  However, I am not an expert by no means and thought I am probably leaving something out obvious.

Thanks for the reply.   We have 3750[G|X] and 3850's as well.   Here are our minimum standard code levels:

 

3750 12.2 55 SE 11
3750X

150-2.SE7 and 150-2.SE10a

3850

03.06.06E

 

The switch could have a newer or older code level however as these switches are sometimes new out of the box or older ones from storage.

You may use RW community to direct switches to upload its configuration to a TFTP server, then check for that on TFTP server.

Or you may enable HTTP access to run something like `show run | section aaa`.

Thank you, I also thought about grabbing the config via TFTP but wanted to explore the SNMP possibilities first. We have a standard username and password for switches that we are staging for AAA management (which is later removed). I could run through my switches and try the default credentials via SSH or Telnet. I might go that route. This is good information to have as anyone knowing the default creds could cause some serious trouble on our network.
