Securing administrative access to your network routing infrastructure is a foundational task in network administration. Whether you are performing routine credential rotation, commissioning a newly deployed unit, transitioning management over a web interface, or recovering access to an enterprise router after a lockout, Cisco hardware provides several distinct mechanisms for authentication.<\/p>\n
