FTOS Configuration Guide for the C-Series - Force10 Networks

To view the configuration, enter the show config command in the LINE mode. To view the status of the
ACL, enter the show ip accounting access-list access-list-name command.
FTOS Behavior: Prior to FTOS version 7.4.2.0, in order to deny access on a VTY line, you must apply
an ACL and AAA authentication to the line. Then users are denied access only after they enter a
username and password. Beginning in FTOS version 7.4.2.0, only an ACL is required, and users are
denied access before they are prompted for a username and password.
configure privilege
There is no default privilege level for the terminal lines.
To set a privilege level for terminal lines, use the following command in the LINE mode:
Command Syntax Command Mode Purpose

Range 0 to 15. The highest level is 15.
To view the configuration, use the show config command in the LINE mode.
To return to the default setting (that is, no privilege level assigned to the terminal lines), enter no privilege
level in the LINE mode.
configure password and login authentication
Use passwords and login authentication to configure access according to different user needs while
protecting the system. Users access certain commands by using passwords and login authentication and the
privilege command.
To configure a password and assign login authentication to a terminal connection, use these commands in
the following sequence, starting in the CONFIGURATION mode:
Step Command Syntax Command Mode Purpose
1 aaa authentication login
{method-list-name | default} line

LINE mode password for
