About the User Privilege Level
Privilege level authorization in the SCE platform is accomplished by the use of an " enable " command
authentication request. When a user requests an authorization for a specified privilege level, by using the
"
enable " command, the SCE platform sends an authentication request to the server
specifying the requested privilege level. The SCE platform grants the requested privilege level only after
the server authenticates the "
enable " command password and verifies that the user has
sufficient privileges the enter the requested privilege level.
Options
The following options are available:
• name — name of the user whose privilege level is set
•
level — the privilege level permitted to the specified user. These levels correspond to the CLI
authorization levels, which are entered via the enable command:
– 0 — User
–
10 — Admin
–
15 (default) — Root
Step 1
From the SCE(config)# prompt, type username name privilege level and press Enter .
How to Add a New User with Privilege Level and Password
Use these commands to define a new user, including password and privilege level, in a single command.
Note
In the config files ( running config and startup config ), this command will appear as two separate
commands.
