Usage Information
By default, access to commands are determined by the user’s role (if dened) or by the user’s privilege level. If the 
aaa authorization role-only command is enabled, then only the user’s role is used.
Before you enable role-based only AAA authorization:
1 Locally dene a system administrator user role.This will give you access to login with full permissions even if 
network connectivity to remote authentication servers is not available.
2 Congure login authentication on the console. This ensures that all users are properly identied through 
authentication no matter the access point
3 Specify an authentication method (RADIUS, TACACS+, or Local). 
4 Specify authorization method (RADIUS, TACACS+ or Local). 
5 Verify the conguration has been applied to the console or VTY line.
