Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

You can configure up to 32 authentication schemes for the system.

Precautions

If the HWTACACS server is Down, unreachable, or does not respond in time, the command authorization fails, and no user can execute such command.

Command-line-based authorization is not associated with any authorization mode.

To configure command-line-based authorization for users at levels 3 to 15, set the parameter privilege-level to 3 in the authorization-cmd command for all such users if the command-privilege level rearrange command is not run in the system view, but set the parameter privilege-level to the specific level at which target users reside if the command-privilege level rearrange command is run in the system view. For example, to configure hwtacacs authorization for users at level 4, run the authorization-cmd 3 hwtacacs command if the command-privilege level rearrange command is not run, but run the authorization-cmd 4 hwtacacs command if the command-privilege level rearrange command is run.

Example

# Create an authentication scheme named newscheme.
<HUAWEI> system-view
[~HUAWEI] aaa
[~HUAWEI-aaa] authentication-scheme newscheme
# Enter the view of the default authentication scheme.
<HUAWEI> system-view
[~HUAWEI] aaa
[~HUAWEI-aaa] authentication-scheme default
