I can login to my ICX6540 switch with my user account but always it asks for enable password .
I need to disable the enable password so I can access to privilege mode directly

Yes sure. Add this command "aaa authentication login privilege-mode". In this way the device enters the Privileged EXEC mode after a successful login through Telnet or SSH.

Hope this helps

Hello Reda
If you have this line "aaa authentication enable default local" in the running config, try to remove it, and retest.

If you want to have a 1st login/password to access the switch, you can use "aaa authentication login default local". This line refers to an authentication based on local created user. So this needs a config line with something like "username YOUR-NAME password ...".

I have local admin account and also command "aaa authentication login default local"
I can access with my local account but I have to enter the enable password
my request is to use my local admin account only without the need to enter enable password as well
