Have SSH sessions start at the "Manager Exec" prompt (Enable prompt)
I received a new HP/Aruba 2920 (WB.15.15.0012) and deployed to a remote site. I just figured out it is not getting backed up by our backup solution because when the backup solution logs into the switch it is expecting the "#" prompt and is instead getting the ">" prompt.
I could configure a seperate group in the backup system and program it to work around this, but for uniformity and management sake, I would prefer to change the switch so that when I SSH into it the switch defaults to exec mode instead of operator mode.
How do I do this?

Re: Have SSH sessions start at the "Manager Exec" prompt (Enable prompt)
Hello,
Are we talking about a login with a local account or is the "backup user" using RADIUS auth to access the switch?
I may be oversimplifying things but if we are talking about a local account can't you just change the name of the manager account on the switch so that the backup process logs in as that named account?
# password manager user-name <USERNAME>
This works for me and drops me at the correct "#" prompt.
The one stumbling block I've found is the uber-annoying "hit any key to continue" - I'd love to get rid of that - Kudos to anyone who has the magic cure.
Hope that gives you a clue. Let us know how you get on and what you find.
Thanks
Ian

Re: Have SSH sessions start at the "Manager Exec" prompt (Enable prompt)
We are wandering a bit off topic, but we have several 2920 switches and I never get the "hit any key to continue" message after login. Perhaps because we have configured a banner message on the switches? 2520 on the other hand......
Back to the topic: if this is using Radius authentication, then you need to return two attributes from the Radius server to the switch for direct manager level access (we are using ClearPass for Radius):
Type Name Value
1. Radius:Hewlett-Packard-Enterprise HPE-Privilege-Level 0
2. Radius:IETF Service-Type Administrative-User (6)
