IMPORTANT: If TACACS+ is enabled, you must login using TACACS+ authentication when connecting via the console or Telnet/SSH/HTTP/HTTPS. Backdoor for console is always enabled, so you can connect using notacacs and the administrator password even if the backdoor (bckdoor) or secure backdoor (secbd) are disabled.

If backdoor is enabled (bckdoor ena), type in notacacs as a backdoor to bypass TACACS+ checking, and use the administrator password to log into the switch. The switch allows this even if TACACS+ servers are available.

If secure backdoor is enabled (secbd ena), type in notacacs as a backdoor to bypass TACACS+ checking, and use the administrator password to log into the switch. The switch allows this only if TACACS+ servers are not available.
