256CHAPTER 7: AAA COMMANDS

set user

Configures a user profile in the local database on the WX switch for a

 

user with a password.

 

(To configure a user profile in RADIUS, see the documentation for your

 

RADIUS server.)

 

Syntax set user username password string (encrypted)

 

„ username — Username of a user with a password.

 

„ password string — Password of up to 32 alphanumeric characters,

 

with no spaces.

 

„ encrypted — Indicates that the password string you entered is

 

already in its encrypted form. If you use this option, MSS does not

 

encrypt the displayed form of the password string, and instead

 

displays the string exactly as you entered it. If you omit this option,

 

MSS does encrypt the displayed form of the string

 

Defaults — None.

 

Access — Enabled.

 

History —Introduced in MSS Version 3.0.

 

Usage — The display config command shows the encrypted option

 

with this command, even when you omit the option. The encrypted

 

option appears in the configuration because MSS automatically encrypts

 

the password when you create the user (unless you use the encrypted

 

option when you enter the password)

 

Although MSS allows you to configure a user password for the special

 

“last-resort” guest user, the password has no effect. Last-resort users can

 

never access a WX in administrative mode and never require a password.

 

Examples — The following command creates a user profile for user Nin

 

in the local database, and assigns the password goody:

 

WX4400# set user Nin password goody

 

success: User Nin created

 

The following command assigns the password chey3nne to the admin

 

user:

WX4400# set user admin password chey3nne
