Configuring User Profiles (CLI)
User profiles enable you to define system access levels. Each user must be assigned a user profile.
Each user profile contains a detailed set of read and write permission levels per functionality
group.
The system includes a number of pre-defined user profiles. You can edit these profiles, and add
user profiles. Together, the system supports up to 50 user profiles.
To create a new user profile with default settings, enter the following command:
root> platform security access-control profile add name <profile-name>
To edit the settings of a user profile, enter the following command:
root> platform security access-control profile edit group name <profile-
name> group <group> write-lvl <write-lvl> read-lvl <read-lvl>
