AAA Server on a Catalyst 4500

[wrgoulden]

Is it possible to configure a catalyst 4500 for example, to be a AAA Server and hold a local username and password database for other switches/routers to authenticate against?

Thanks

While it is possible to configure a catalyst switch as aaa client, and it is possible to configure a catalyst switch to do local authentication using a locally configured username/password database, I believe that it is not possible to configure a catalyst switch to provide authentication to other switches based on its local username/password database. I do not believe that the catalyst swithes include the server code for aaa.
