Disable "enable" login with TACACS

Hello,

Switch Model - PowerConnect 6248P

I am trying to login with TACACS.

after entering username and password I was asked to put "ENABLE" password.

how can i disable this request ? and only use username and password (TACACS).

thanks,

IB.

    Hi,

    Try to change the aaa authentication enable setting, page 193 of the CLI guide. ftp://ftp.dell.com/Manuals/all-products/esuprt_ser_stor_net/esuprt_powerconnect/powerconnect-6248_Reference%20Guide_en-us.pdf

    This should allow you to set tacacs as the method for elevated privileges instead of having a separate enable password. You may also need to disable the need for an enable password with the command no enable authentication.

    aaa authentication enable "NoneEN" enable

    is enabling the enable password

    Try

    no aaa authentication enable "NoneEN"

    or

    aaa authentication "tacacs" tacacs

    Dear Team,

    I am tried following config, but no luck, hence could you please suggest me. Its very urgent to enable TACAC to my device. Hence kindly do the needful.

    aaa authentication login "networkList" tacacs local


    ip http authentication tacacs local
    ip https authentication tacacs local


    tacacs-server host 10.xx.x.5

    timeout 1

    key "cxxxrp"
    priority 20
    exit


    tacacs-server host 10.xx.2.5
    timeout 1
    key "cxxxrp"
    priority 10
    exit


    tacacs-server key "cxxxrp"

    Hi Ramesh,

    Please try the following and let me know if it works for you.

    switch(config)#aaa authentication enable enablelist none

    switch(config)#aaa authentication login loginlist tacacs local

    The above are the login and enable lists, now please apply them to the line as below

    switch(config)#line ssh

    switch(config-line)#login authentication loginlist

    switch(config-line)#enable authentication enablelist

    Authentication methods are now created and applied to the virtual terminal line. Please initiate a separate ssh connection and try login with your tacacs credentials.

    NOTE:- Before successful testing, please do not close the existing terminal session. Closing the active session may lead to a complete login lockdown.

    Kind regards,

    Praga

    This is very simple. If you want no password on the enable prompt set it to none.

     

    aaa authentication enable default none

     

    the above command sets enable authentication to none.

     

    So your two commands for tacacs would be..

     


    aaa authentication enable default none
    aaa authentication login default tacacs+ local
