Wireless Controller read-only role does not have access to show commands

  • 1.  Wireless Controller read-only role does not have access to show commands

    Posted Nov 30, 2016 06:32 PM

    I am trying to create a user on our Wireless Controller(Aruba7205) that will use the mgmt-user read-only role.  I am able to create the user but when I log onto the CLI of the controller the user does not have access to show commands.  I am also not able to enter enable mode while using the read-only mgmt-user role.  Is there something else that needs to be done to use the read-only role?  I am able to log onto the CLI of the controller with the username and password I just don't have access to show commands.  Thanks!

    Hi,

     

    It seems to work ok for me. I'm on 6.5.1.1.

     

    I'm logged in with rotest below:

    Thanks JR!  I realised I had to enter enable mode to use the show commands when signed in as a read-only user.  Another thing that threw me was the read-only user can also enter configure terminal mode but they are not able to make changes.  It kind of rubbed me the wrong way since I would think a read-only user would not be able to access configure mode.  Thanks for the reply!
