Can't Set Local Console Login
I need some suggestions on how to make sure the Console login requests a username and password. Here is what I've done so far:
del start
reload
[select 4 for "password recovery" to remove any current password]
enable
config
username admin password xyzzy level 15
aaa auth log def local
aaa auth ena def ena
line console
login auth def
ena auth def
Believe it or not, this seemed to have worked one time but has never worked since (another 5 or more tries)!
I just want to force whoever is connecting to the console port to enter a username and password...
Any help would be appreciated
Scott

The following commands would create authentication method lists called console_log and console_en and configure the switch to prompt for a username and password when trying to access the console port:
(config)# username admin password xyzzy level 15
(config)# enable password enablepass
(config)# aaa authentication login console_log local
(config)# aaa authentication enable console_en enable
(config)# line console
(config-line)# login authentication console_log
(config-line)# enable authentication console_en
When logging in, you would use the username admin with password xyzzy. If you login using a level 1 account or use the "disable"command, you would use the password enablepass to get to enable mode.
