Local Authentication

The first time you access a WX switch, it requires no authentication. (For

 

more information, see “First-Time Configuration via the Console” on

 

page 55.) In this scenario, after the initial configuration of the WX switch,

 

Natasha is connected through the console and has enabled access.

 

To enable local authentication for a console user, you must configure a

 

local username. Natasha types the following commands in this order:

 

WX1200# set user natasha password m@Jor

 

User natasha created

 

WX1200# set authentication console * local

 

success: change accepted.

 

WX1200# save config

 

success: configuration saved.
