Note: The configuration of Free Radius is done on Ubuntu(Linux) Server. Restart the Radius service, Now when you login to the device, User will get the level 3 privilege.

Create a local user on the switch with full privileges for fallback with the username command as shown here Switch(config)#username admin privilege 15 password 0 cisco123!Ģ. Switch Configuration - Authentication and Authorizationġ. PrerequisitesĮnsure that you have your Cisco switch defined as a client in free radius with the ip address and same shared secret key defined on the free radius and switch Components Used By adding authorization exec, we can bypass enable authentication and directly land the user to privilege 15 mode.
