Prerequisites

Steps

  1. Navigate to the LocalAuthorizationMethod Managed Object (MO), for example:

    >dn ManagedElement=NODE06ST,SystemFunctions=1,SecM=1,UserManagement=1,LocalAuthorizationMethod=1

  2. View the current settings:

    (LocalAuthorizationMethod=1)>show –v

    The following is an example output:

    LocalAuthorizationMethod=1
       administrativeState=UNLOCKED
       CustomRole=CscfApplicationAdministratorCustom
       Role=CscfApplicationAdministrator
       Role=CscfApplicationOperator
       Role=CscfApplicationSecurityAdministrator
       Role=SystemAdministrator
       Role=SystemSecurityAdministrator
  3. Enter Config mode:

    (LocalAuthorizationMethod=1)>configure

  4. Delete the CustomRole MO, for example:

    (config-LocalAuthorizationMethod=1)>no CustomRole=CscfApplicationAdministratorCustom

  5. Commit the deletion:

    (config-LocalAuthorizationMethod=1)>commit

  6. Verify the deletion by checking the Role instances:

    (LocalAuthorizationMethod=1)>show -v

    The following is an example output:

    LocalAuthorizationMethod=1
       administrativeState=UNLOCKED
       Role=CscfApplicationAdministrator
       Role=CscfApplicationOperator
       Role=CscfApplicationSecurityAdministrator
       Role=SystemAdministrator
       Role=SystemSecurityAdministrator
