USER’S GUIDE

netlogin change

Allows you to change the current network login configuration data. After entering the netlogin change command, you will be prompted for the type of login configuration information you want to change. The prompt will resemble the CFGEDIT screen in which this information was originally configured. You may change: user level security general configuration, login banners, login configuration specific to RADIUS, and login configuration specific to TACACS.

LOGIN CONFIGURATION SPECIFIC TO TACACS SERVER BACKGROUND INFORMATION

LOGIN ELEMENTS SPECIFIC TO TACACS

There are login configuration parameters specific to TACACS. These include the specification of prompt order, a password control character, and specification of messages for TACACS return codes.

The prompt order specified on the system must match the prompt order specified on the TACACS server. The default order is:

First prompt: LOGIN ID PROMPT (fixed)

Second prompt: DYNAMIC PASSWORD PROMPT

Third prompt: USER PASSWORD PROMPT

If you need to change this order, you may specify this order of prompts in the login process.

The password control character is a key sequence you specify to switch between the login mode and the change password mode. In order to enable this feature for the general user, you need to configure this password control character.

TACACS may provide return code messages upon user login. You may customize these messages through CFGEDIT. The default messages are as follows:

If the login process was successful, but the user password is about to expire, one of the following messages is displayed:

Password about to expire

Password expiration imminent

If the login process is unsuccessful, one of the following messages is displayed:

Login invalid

Please change PIN

User/Password invalid
