Create CUBE User

VSM requires the user to be created on any Cisco IOS device. The user is required to run show commands.

User can be created using one of two options.

TACACS Option

If the client is using TACACS or Radius to control IOS users, ask the client to create an account to VSM User.

QUERY: Ask Eyad tomorrow what he meant by this?

Confirm with the TACACS team that you can run 'show' commands with the created account.

Test the account by logging to the CUBE (SSH to CUBE with the created account) and run those commands. Make sure there is output when you run these commands.

Router$ show running-config
Router$ show startup-config
Router$ show dial-peer voice summary
Router$ show call active voice compact

Local User Option

Login to IOS and enter the following commands:

Router(config)$ username {Enter User Here} privilege 1 Password  {Type Password}
Router(config)$ privilege exec level 1 show dial-peer voice summary
Router(config)$ privilege exec level 1 show dial-peer voice 
Router(config)$ privilege exec level 1 show dial-peer voice
Router(config)$ privilege exec level 1 show


Test the account by logging to the CUBE (SSH to CUBE with the account created) and run those commands. Make sure there is output when you run these commands.

Router$ show running-config
Router$ show startup-config
Router$ show dial-peer voice summary
Router$ show call active voice compact
