1
00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:19,850
So we've created another user on the server and we verified that to the user can log in.

2
00:00:20,570 --> 00:00:26,370
We need to verify now that the local backup user cannot log in when the server is reachable.

3
00:00:27,170 --> 00:00:35,960
So when router 1 pings  to the switch as an example, we can't log in using the backup user, but we

4
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:39,620
can log in using AAA user accounts.

5
00:00:40,370 --> 00:00:42,380
So that works but

6
00:00:42,380 --> 00:00:47,000
then we need to verify what happens when we disable the port on the switch.

7
00:00:47,810 --> 00:00:56,750
So at the moment we have IP connectivity from the devices to the AAA server so router 2 can ping the AAA

8
00:00:57,110 --> 00:01:08,840
server, which means that when router 1 telnet to router 2, we have to log in using a user name

9
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:11,750
on the AAA server.

10
00:01:13,060 --> 00:01:14,560
We can't log in

11
00:01:16,090 --> 00:01:23,110
with a local user account, so the backup user doesn't work here.

12
00:01:26,150 --> 00:01:27,170
So try that again.

13
00:01:27,940 --> 00:01:29,140
I can log in as David

14
00:01:30,140 --> 00:01:36,660
but notice I cannot log in as the backup user, but I can log in as Peter Pan.

15
00:01:37,970 --> 00:01:42,170
So what happens if we disable the connection on the switch?

16
00:01:43,550 --> 00:01:51,530
So interface gigabit 102, I'll shut that port down, so this port is now disabled.

17
00:01:52,310 --> 00:01:55,300
How does that affect connections to the router?

18
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:58,460
So I'll Log-in is David, password is Cisco.

19
00:01:58,740 --> 00:02:00,680
Notice it's taking a long time.

20
00:02:01,950 --> 00:02:08,830
We have to wait for this to time out, but at the moment, I can't log in as David, notice invalid log

21
00:02:08,830 --> 00:02:08,840
in.

22
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,420
I'll try and log in as the backup user.

23
00:02:13,230 --> 00:02:21,390
You again may need to wait quite a while for the connections to fail and then revert back to using a

24
00:02:21,390 --> 00:02:22,800
local username and password.

25
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:30,880
But notice, after a long time, I was able to log in as the backup user, when I type enable there's

26
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:35,090
a long delay because the router is trying to connect to the AAA server.

27
00:02:35,590 --> 00:02:42,010
Remember, we enabled AAA for both login

28
00:02:42,920 --> 00:02:43,880
and enable.

29
00:02:44,980 --> 00:02:52,390
Use my backup user account, password of Cisco may take a while, but again, I should be able to log in

30
00:02:52,930 --> 00:02:53,680
using

31
00:02:54,770 --> 00:03:00,860
my local username and password. I'm going to speed up the video, but this is taking a long time

32
00:03:01,250 --> 00:03:04,460
but notice eventually I can log into router 2

33
00:03:06,970 --> 00:03:08,860
but if we go back to the switch

34
00:03:10,060 --> 00:03:17,830
and re-enable that port, we need to wait for spanning tree to converge, but once that's done, the

35
00:03:17,830 --> 00:03:26,620
backup local user account will no longer work, but the AAA accounts should start working, so I should be

36
00:03:26,620 --> 00:03:29,560
able to log back in as David or Peter Pan.

37
00:03:30,530 --> 00:03:31,290
So there you go.

38
00:03:31,310 --> 00:03:39,890
So Log-in is David, password is Cisco, I can log straight into the router login as Peter, I can

39
00:03:39,890 --> 00:03:40,330
log in.

40
00:03:41,180 --> 00:03:43,580
So that proves that

41
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:50,750
the backup account is only used when AAA is not available.

42
00:03:51,750 --> 00:04:00,540
We can do that test again, notice if I log in as backup it fails, I've got a login as a AAA user

43
00:04:01,110 --> 00:04:03,390
to succeed when the connection is up.

44
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:11,400
But when the connection is down between the devices and the AAA server, the local user account is used.

45
00:04:11,910 --> 00:04:13,890
So we've now completed the verification.

46
00:04:14,250 --> 00:04:15,840
Let's run a simulation.
