Privilege level for Cisco SD-WAN (Viptela)

For authenticated compliance scans of Cisco SD-WAN (Viptela) devices, you'll use a Cisco authentication record and you'll need to provide a user account in the netadmin user group. 

Privilege levels

The Viptela software provides three standard user groups and each user group has its own set of privileges:

- basic
- operator
- netadmin

To run a complete compliance scan, the user account you provide for authenticated scanning must be added into the "netadmin" user group. This is the only group that has the privileges to be able to execute all commands required for scanning. 

Create a scan user account on the system to scan

Create a user account on the target system you want to scan, and add the user to the "netadmin" user group. In this sample, the user is "john", the target system is 10.11.12.13 and the Operating System is Viptela vedge version 18.4.4.
