Assigning User Roles; Fips Compliance; Configuration Task List - HP 10500 Series Configuration Manual

Assigning user roles

You assign access rights to users by assigning at least one user role. The users can use the collection of
commands and resources accessible to any user role assigned to them. For example, you can access any
interface to use the qos apply policy command if you are assigned the following user roles:
• User role A denies access to the qos apply policy command and permits access to only interface
Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/1.
User role B permits access to the qos apply policy command and all interfaces.
•
Depending on the authentication method, user role assignment has the following methods:
AAA authorization—If scheme authentication is used, the AAA module handles user role
•
assignment.
If the user passes local authorization, the device assigns the user roles specified in the local user
account.
If the user passes remote authorization, the remote AAA server assigns the user roles specified
on the server. The AAA server can be a RADIUS or HWTACACS server.
None-AAA authorization—If the user uses password authentication or no authentication, the device
•
assigns user roles specified on the user line. This method also applies to SSH clients that use
publickey or password-publickey authentication. User roles assigned to these SSH clients are
specified in their respective device management user accounts.
For more information about AAA and SSH, see Security Configuration Guide. For more information
about user line, see "Login overview" and "Logging in to the CLI."

FIPS compliance

The device supports the FIPS mode that complies with NIST FIPS 140-2 requirements. Support for features,
commands, and parameters might differ in FIPS mode and non-FIPS mode. For more information about
FIPS mode, see Security Configuration Guide.
