<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Hi,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">We use
tacacs+ and/or SSH keys for regular access to configure
infrastructure as is tradition.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">We wanted to
see if there was a way to configure a local account just for
con0 access to the switch.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Not only
just in the event that the tacacs+ infrastructure becomes
unavailable (I believe our configuration falls back to local
anyway)
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">But
sometimes we are making changes to things that it would be
really nice to have console access to the switch prior to a
potentially breaking change.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I found this
article which seems to attempt to describe how to achieve
using the local database only for console access which seems
like what I want.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
