Console Password

[prestoc]

I have configured remote access on a 2960.

I am now trying to configure the switch to accept a password only when connecting through the console.

line con 0

exec-timeout 0 0

password 7 051F140E2F1943****

line vty 0 4

password 7 045704050E2D015858****

transport input ssh

line vty 5 15

password 7 060A00224D42440F54****

transport input ssh

!

Currently insists on a username and password to connect through the console. Can anybody tell me what I have configured incorrectly?

Tacacs has been configured on this switch.

Hi,

if you have aaa new-model enabled then it will ask for a user/pass and by default it will use the default authentication login method you configured.If you want to use line password for the console in this case you must do this:

aaa authentication login CONSOLE line

line con 0

login authentication CONSOLE

Can you post sh run | s aaa|user output.

Regards

Alain
