Login overview

The device supports the following types of login methods:

·     CLI loginAt the CLI, you can enter text commands to configure and manage the device.

To log in to the CLI, you can use one of the following methods:

¡     Connect to the console port.

¡     Use Telnet.

¡     Use SSH.

·     Web loginThrough the Web interface, you can configure and manage the device visually.

·     SNMP accessYou can run SNMP on an NMS to access the device MIB, and perform Get and Set operations to configure and manage the device.

·     RESTful accessYou can use RESTful API operations to configure and manage the device.

The first time you access the device, you can only log in to the CLI through the console port unless the device is automatically configured at startup. After login, you can change console login parameters or configure other access methods.

 


Using the console port for the first device access

About this task

Console login is the fundamental login method.

Prerequisites

To log in through the console port, prepare a console terminal, for example, a PC. Make sure the console terminal has a terminal emulation program, such as HyperTerminal or PuTTY. For information about how to use terminal emulation programs, see the programs' user guides.

Procedure

1.     Turn off the PC.

The serial ports on PCs do not support hot swapping. Before connecting a cable to or disconnecting a cable from a serial port on a PC, you must turn off the PC.

2.     Find the console cable shipped with the device and connect the DB-9 female connector of the console cable to the serial port of the PC.

3.     Identify the console port of the device carefully and connect the RJ-45 connector of the console cable to the console port.

 

IMPORTANT

IMPORTANT:

To connect a PC to an operating device, first connect the PC end. To disconnect a PC from an operating device, first disconnect the device end.

Figure 1 Connecting a terminal to the console port

4.     Turn on the PC.

5.     On the PC, launch the terminal emulation program, and create a connection that uses the serial port connected to the device. Set the port properties so the port properties match the following console port default settings:

¡     Bits per second—9600 bps.

¡     Flow control—None.

¡     Parity—None.

¡     Stop bits—1.

¡     Data bits—8.

6.     Power on the device and press Enter as prompted.

The user view prompt appears. You can enter commands to configure or manage the device. To get help, enter a question mark (?).


Configuring CLI login

About CLI login

The device uses user lines (also called user interfaces) to manage CLI sessions and monitor user behavior. For a user line, you can configure access control settings, including the login authentication method and user roles.

User lines

User line types

The device supports the following types of user lines, and different user lines require different login methods:

·     Console line: Console port.

·     Virtual type terminal (VTY) line: Telnet or SSH.

User line numbering

A user line has an absolute number and a relative number.

An absolute number uniquely identifies a user line among all user lines. The user lines are numbered starting from 0 and incrementing by 1, in the sequence of console and VTY lines. You can use the display line command without any parameters to view supported user lines and their absolute numbers.

A relative number uniquely identifies a user line among all user lines of the same type. The number format is user line type + number. All types of user lines are numbered starting from 0 and incrementing by 1. For example, the first VTY line is VTY 0.

User line assignment

The device assigns user lines to CLI login users depending on their login methods. When a user logs in, the device checks the idle user lines for the login method, and assigns the lowest numbered user line to the user. For example, if VTY 0 and VTY 3 are idle when a user Telnets to the device, the device assigns VTY 0 to the user.

Each user line can be assigned only to one user at a time. If no user line is available, a CLI login attempt will be rejected.

Login authentication modes

You can configure login authentication to prevent illegal access to the device CLI.

The device supports the following login authentication modes:

·     None—Disables authentication. This mode allows access without authentication and is insecure.

·     Password—Requires password authentication. A user must provide the correct password at login.

·     Scheme—Uses the AAA module to provide local or remote login authentication. A user must provide the correct username and password at login.

Different login authentication modes require different user line configurations, as shown in Table 1.

Table 1 Configuration required for different login authentication modes

Authentication mode

Configuration tasks

None

Set the authentication mode to none.

Password

1.     Set the authentication mode to password.

2.     Set a password.

Scheme

1.     Set the authentication mode to scheme.

2.     Configure login authentication methods in ISP domain view. For more information, see Security Configuration Guide.

User roles

A user is assigned user roles at login. The user roles control the commands available for the user. For more information about user roles, see "Configuring RBAC."

The device assigns user roles based on the login authentication mode and user type.

·     In none or password authentication mode, the device assigns the user roles specified for the user line.

·     In scheme authentication mode, the device uses the following rules to assign user roles:

¡     For an SSH login user who uses publickey or password-publickey authentication, the device assigns the user roles specified for the local device management user with the same name.

¡     For other users, the device assigns user roles according to the user role configuration of the AAA module. If the AAA server does not assign any user roles and the default user role feature is disabled, a remote AAA authentication user cannot log in.

Restrictions and guidelines: CLI login configuration

For commands that are available in both user line view and user line class view, the following rules apply:

·     A setting in user line view applies only to the user line. A setting in user line class view applies to all user lines of the class.

·     A non-default setting in either view takes precedence over the default setting in the other view. A non-default setting in user line view takes precedence over the non-default setting in user line class view.

·     A setting in user line class view takes effect only on users who log in after the setting is made. It does not affect users who are already online when the setting is made.

Configuring console login

About console, AUX, and USB login

You can connect a terminal to the console port of the device to log in and manage the device, as shown in Figure 2. For information about the login procedure, see "Using the console port for the first device access."

Figure 2 Logging in through the console port

By default, console login is enabled and does not require authentication. The default user role is network-admin for a console user. To improve device security, configure password or scheme authentication for console login immediately after you log in to the device for the first time.

Restrictions and guidelines

A console login configuration change takes effect only for users who log in after the change is made. It does not affect users who are already online when the change is made.

Configuring command authorization

About command authorization

By default, commands available for a user depend only on the user's user roles. When the authentication mode is scheme, you can configure the command authorization feature to further control access to commands. After you enable command authorization, a user can use only commands that are permitted by both the AAA scheme and user roles.

Restrictions and guidelines

The command authorization method can be different from the user login authorization method.

For the command authorization feature to take effect, you must configure a command authorization method in ISP domain view. For more information, see AAA in User Access and Authentication Configuration Guide.

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Enter user line view or user line class view.

¡     Enter user line view.

line { first-number1 [ last-number1 ] | { console | vty } first-number2 [ last-number2 ] }

¡     Enter user line class view.

line class { console | vty }

A setting in user line view applies only to the user line. A setting in user line class view applies to all user lines of the class. A non-default setting in either view takes precedence over the default setting in the other view. A non-default setting in user line view takes precedence over the non-default setting in user line class view.

A setting in user line class view takes effect only on users who log in after the setting is made. It does not affect users who are already online when the setting is made.

3.     Enable scheme authentication.

authentication-mode scheme

By default, authentication is disabled for console login and password authentication is enabled for VTY login.

In VTY line view, this command is associated with the protocol inbound command. If one command has a non-default setting in VTY line view, the other command uses its setting in VTY line view, regardless of its setting in VTY line class view.

4.     Enable command authorization.

command authorization

By default, command authorization is disabled, and the commands available for a user only depend on the user role.

If the command authorization command is configured in user line class view, command authorization is enabled on all user lines in the class. You cannot configure the undo command authorization command in the view of a user line in the class.

Example: Configuring command authorization

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 10, a user needs to log in to the AC to manage the AC from Host A.

Configure the AC to perform the following operations:

·     Allow Host A to Telnet in after authentication.

Configuring command accounting

About command accounting

Command accounting uses the HWTACACS server to record all executed commands to monitor user behavior on the device.

If command accounting is enabled but command authorization is not, every executed command is recorded. If both command accounting and command authorization are enabled, only authorized commands that are executed are recorded.

Restrictions and guidelines

The command accounting method can be the same as or different from the command authorization method and user login authorization method.

For the command accounting feature to take effect, you must configure a command accounting method in ISP domain view. For more information, see AAA in User Access and Authentication Configuration Guide.

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Enter user line view or user line class view.

¡     Enter user line view.

line { first-number1 [ last-number1 ] | { console | vty } first-number2 [ last-number2 ] }

¡     Enter user line class view.

line class { console | vty }

A setting in user line view applies only to the user line. A setting in user line class view applies to all user lines of the class. A non-default setting in either view takes precedence over the default setting in the other view. A non-default setting in user line view takes precedence over the non-default setting in user line class view.

A setting in user line class view takes effect only on users who log in after the setting is made. It does not affect users who are already online when the setting is made.

3.     Enable scheme authentication.

authentication-mode scheme

By default, authentication is disabled for console login, and password authentication is enabled for VTY login.

In VTY line view, this command is associated with the protocol inbound command. If one command has a non-default setting in VTY line view, the other command uses its setting in VTY line view, regardless of its setting in VTY line class view.

4.     Enable command accounting.

command accounting

By default, command accounting is disabled. The accounting server does not record the commands executed by users.

If the command accounting command is configured in user line class view, command accounting is enabled on all user lines in the class. You cannot configure the undo command accounting command in the view of a user line in the class.

Example: Configuring command accounting
