Cisco: Login into switch and alread be enabled?

[Nuwave]

Hi,

I'm an Alcatel guy and our organization is moving to an all Cisco world. I was able to configure My alcatel switches that were hierarchal to automatically go into enabled mode when I logged into them.

Is it possible with Cisco?

In particular Catalyst 3750v2's?

Local account database will be used.

-Thanks!

Yes, although not a good idea.

It's a aaa command along the lines of:

aaa authorization privileged-exec if-authenticated

You're creating a method list for authorization to the privileged-exec (enable mode or level 15 access) that says you're authorized if you're authenticated.

I can't find that command or any like it.

Is there anything in here that looks like what I'm trying to do?

Couldn't you do the same thing by setting up a user with privileged access?
