values need to refer to each group privilege level. User's privilege should be same or greater than the group
privilege level to have the access of that group. By default setting, most groups privilege level 5 has the read-only
access and privilege level 10 has the read-write access. And the system maintenance (software upload, factory
defaults and etc.) need user privilege level 15. Generally, the privilege level 15 can be used for an administrator
account, privilege level 10 for a standard user account and privilege level 5 for a guest account.
