Privilege 15 Password 7 Crack

Last week we looked at options for configuring privilege levels in Cisco IOS devices. I mentioned that there are three primary methods for doing this. The first method, which we focused on last week, was using the enable command. This article is going to look at a method that is slightly more functional in an environment with multiple administrators logging in to IOS devices. This method will expand on our understand of the local user database and will place users in the appropriate privilege level based on their assignment.

Using the local user database for authentication is easy. There is no need for “aaa new-model” or the complexity that brings along. Before we get into privilege levels, let’s first look at a router configured for local user authentication.

As can be seen in the test, the users are immediately placed into the appropriate privilege level. The user having access to privilege level 7, would be able to access commands that are at privilege level 7 or below. The user at privilege level 15 would have access to everything.
