Creating Admin username in ISE using CLI

[riyasrasheed]

Hi All,

Can we able to create an admin username and password with role admin in the cli.

I have access to the cli using a user account and I was trying to create an admin username and password.

I have created one but i cannot access using those credentials.

I read in a doc, admin can reset only via booting from iso image.

Kindly advice, on this.

Thanks

rYs

Hi riyasrasheed,

You can create an admin user from CLI.

Once you logged into ISE CLI with admin credentials you have to follow below syntax to create another admin user.

isevm225-pod2/naresh# configure
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
isevm225-pod2/naresh(config)# username demouser password plain default1A role ?
  admin  Specifies user with administrative role privileges
  user   Specifies user with read-only role privileges

isevm225-pod2/naresh(config)# username demouser password plain default1A role admin
isevm225-pod2/naresh(config)#

Exit and try to login with newly created user and password.

Thanks,

Naresh
