Usage Information
To control access to command modes, use this command to define a password for a level and use the
privilege
level (CONFIGURATION mode)
command.
Passwords must meet the following criteria:
•
Start with a letter, not a number.
•
Passwords can have a regular expression as the password. To create a password with a regular expression in it,
use CNTL + v prior to entering regular expression. For example, to create the password
abcd]e
, you type
“
abcd CNTL v ]e
”. When the password is created, you do not use the CNTL + v key combination and enter
“
abcd]e
”.
NOTE:
The question mark (?) is not a supported character.
