  • 1.  Radius authentication for mamanagement users

    Posted Jan 11, 2024 05:17 PM

    Hi
    We are authenticating our management users with Radius,
    It works fine until one tries to enter Enable mode.
    Works fine on ProxySG, also in Enable mode.
    We use Cisco ISE version 3
    Am i missing something in the ISE server config?

    Hi,
    what happens, when you enter your user`managment-password again, when you enter the ena mode?

    So: 
    admin = 1 Password
    ena      = 1 different Password

    User   = User Password
    ena     = same User Password

    I want to clarify here, that the enable mode password is unique and not the same as the RADIUS or any other external authentication. Enable mode password is created during the initial setup of the device and is uniquely set on the device, not through RADIUS. 

    "Set a unique enable password, different from that of the built-in admin account.
    The enable password should be stronger than the primary admin password and be shared among only a few admins, on a need-to-know basis."
