Configure an enable authentication list

An enable list specifies the authentication methods to validate privileged EXEC access
in the CLI. An enable list can apply to users that access the switch CLI through one of
the following methods:

Secure Shell (SSH): For information about selecting an enable list for SSH access,
see SSH management access on page 669.

Telnet: For information about selecting an enable list for Telnet access, see Telnet
management access
on page 676.

Console port: For information about selecting an enable list for console port access,
see Console port management access on page 679.

Two default lists are present: enableList and enableNetList. You cannot delete these
lists.

The preconfigured users (admin and guest) are assigned to the enableList until you
specifically select a different list.

All newly added users are also assigned to the enableList until you specifically select a
different list.
