Dell S40408-ON set serial cable connection login password

Hey there

 

I've been struggling with this a bit.

I'm trying to set a login password on my switch when someone is connected via the serial/console cable.

I've got SSH working but not for serial/console cable.

Ideally no matter how anyone connects I'd like to set a login request.

Can anyone help me with this one?

    @DELL-Josh CrThanks for the reply.

    I'm using ver9.13

    I did eventually figure it out, i was looking for

    ---aaa authentication login default local line---

    I can't tell you how many different combinations i tried of that line to get the correct one.

    Hi memorist,

    Which OS version are you using? I think if you change the AAA authentication for console you can get it to ask for a password. Page 1132 https://dell.to/36Er0NP
