I have created a test user that is set to privilege 15 in the config:
username test password ****************
encrypted privilege 15
When I log in to the ASA 5510 I am in privilege 1 according to sh curpriv:
login as: test
[email protected]'s password:
Type help or '?' for a list of available commands.
asa> sh curpriv
Username : test
Current privilege level : 1
Current Mode/s : P_UNPR
Attempting enable fails even though I know I have the correct enable password:
asa> en
Password: *************************
Password: *************************
Password: *************************
Access denied.
Logging in from unprivileged puts me on privilege 15 and I can do as a please:
asa> login
Username : test
Pasword: *************************
asa> sh curpriv
Current privilege level : 15
Current Mode/s : P_PRIV
asa>
The only thing I can track this to is a configuration change I made where I removed a VPN user we no longer needed.
Why do I start at privilege level 1 when logging into a Cisco ASA 5510?
