login local without username configured

Hi

 

I accidentally configure vty 0 15 login local without configured any username.

 

I know the telnet and enable password. Is there a way to avoid the login local and go back asking for telnet and enable access?

 

Thanks,

Sonny

If you have not saved the config you put in you could reload the switch it will revert back to last saved or do a password recovery if its still asking you for a username password

did you do the console as well or just vty , if only vty you could access switch over direct console and make the changes on the vty from there

You can perhaps try to upload a new configuration(with login credentials or without vty 0 15 login local ) using SNMP

If you have not saved the config, change it there, I have also made this mistake once, but I have edited it in config file.

If you can't access it over a vty line, and if you didn't save the config simply reload the device.

Otherwise it's a trip to the switch with a console cable
