RE: aaa authentication and vty lines

Sean,

There is nothing wrong with your configuration that I can see based on what you posted. I was pretty sure it looked correct, but I have verified in my lab as well, not sure off hand what else it might be.

Could you post your 's run | s line vty' and 's run | i aaa' ?

Subject: aaa authentication and vty lines

Hi All,

Could someone please help!? I am trying to configure dot1x for switchport
interfaces but I want the telnet lines to only ask for a password, therefore
not breaking the rules of mock labs etc

by changing the authentication methods of the telnet lines.

So I have done the following configuration

#aaa new-model

#aaa authentication login VTY line

#line vty 0 15

#login authentication VTY

#password cisco

I'm sure this is correct, but when I telnet from another device to the
switch (or to itself for that matter), I get the following, no password
prompt and nothing else (with debug aaa authentication enabled):

Rack1SW2(config-line)#do telnet 150.1.8.8

Trying 150.1.8.8 ... Open

*Mar 12 04:23:51.567: AAA/BIND(00000009): Bind i/f

*Mar 12 04:23:51.567: AAA/AUTHEN/LOGIN (00000009): Pick method list 'VTY'

From here I have to manually ctrl-shift-6 x out to do anything else. I do
not have any access-lists configured that could affect the config and if I
set the aaa authentication login method to "none", it does not ask for a
password and continues as expected to the switch prompt.

Thanks in advance,

Regards,

Sean
