    This is the version on my Aruba 2930F switch CLI.  Right now, I'm using RADIUS authentication, but I like to add a local manger account also just in case RADIUS was not available for some reason.

    I tried this command, aaa authentication local-user admin group admin password sha256 TopSecretPW, but it says Authorization group admin does not exist

    Am I doing this right?  How can I create an authorization group called admin?  I got up to aaa authorization group admin, but then it was prompting for a sequence number or uri-seq, what are those?

    when I run sh running-config, I can see at the end there's

    password manager

    password operator

    I think that means there's already a local account for manager and operator.  According to the links below, the username is optional.  I'm not sure how to find out if it has a username, and what the password set is already.  I didn't setup this switch.

    Is my option to do a no password manager, and reset the passsword?
