350-401 Exam - Question 729


A network engineer wants to configure console access to a router without using AAA so that the privileged exec mode is entered directly after a user provides the correct login credentials. Which action achieves this goal?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: BC

To achieve direct entry into privileged exec mode upon providing correct credentials without using AAA, the correct solution is to configure privilege level 15 on the console line (line con 0). This setting ensures that any user who logs in through the console is granted privileged exec mode immediately after authentication. Configuring a local username with privilege level 15 would require using 'login local' under the console line, which can be considered a form of AAA (local authentication). Therefore, configuring privilege level 15 directly on the console line is the most straightforward approach that aligns with the given requirements.

D only works if "login local" is added under "line con 0". We need to tell the device to use the local user database for authentication. C achieves the goal. https://www.n-study.com/en/cisco-basic/login-privilege-exec/

Answer is C

It says "without using AAA", so it has to be using the password configured on line con 0, plus the "privilege level 15" command so entering said password would immediately put you on privileged mode.

It's C. Answer D uses AAA

The only way to enter the privileged exec mode right away without using AAA is to use the "privilege level 15" command. In this case the credentials mentioned in the question is just the password you enter under line con 0. D is wrong because it implies using AAA and the question explicitly says not to.

C. Using the command "privilege level 15" under line console 0 will guarantee exec privileges as soon as we log in through that port. From there, the authentication can be done either by a username/password combination or just a console password.

D seems like answer to me. C will assign privilege 15 to all authenticated users (user can be authenticated via AAA as well as local database). Question want you to bypass AAA involvement. Option D is assigning privilege level 15 and creating Local user.

Correct me if I am wrong but it seems to me that both C and D will accomplish this?

B is not a real command C applies to all user D is missing the login local under line con 0 but it is the closest answer

It´s C This method dosen´t require specifying local usernames and directly grants privileged exec mode to anyone logging in via the console, which might be more in line with the intent of bypassing more complex AAA configurations. D is missing login local
