Configuring Local AAA Security

Configure authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) to perform log in authentication by using the local username database. The login keyword authenticates EXEC shell users. Additionally, configure PPP authentication to use the local database if the session was not already authenticated by login.

AAA(called triple A) is the Cisco IOS security model used on all Cisco devices. AAA provides the primary framework through which you set up access control on the Cisco AS5350 or Cisco AS5400.

The same authentication method is used on all interfaces. AAA is set up to use the local database configured on the gateway. This local database is created with the username configuration commands.

Step 1 Enter global configuration mode. You are in global configuration mode when your prompt changes to Gateway(config)#.

Gateway# configure terminal

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.

Gateway(config)#

Step 2 Create a local login username database in global configuration mode. In this example, the administrator's username is admin. The remote client’s login username is Harry.

Gateway(config)# username admin password adminpasshere

Gateway(config)# username Harry password Harrypasshere

Step 3 Configure local AAA security in global configuration mode. You must enter the aaa new-modelcommand before the other two authentication commands.

Gateway(config)# aaa new-model

Gateway(config)# aaa authentication login default local

Gateway(config)# aaa authentication ppp default if-needed local

Step 4 Return to privileged EXEC mode:

Gateway(config)# Ctrl-Z

Gateway#

Step 5 Log in with your username and password:

Caution After you have configured AAA security, all access will require a username and password. Make sure that your login name and password are working before you exit or reboot. If you are unable to get back into your universal gateway, refer to the password recovery instructions at the following URL:
