Level 8-14 provide the same default access privileges, including
additional commands beyond those provided for Levels 0-7 (equivalent
to CLI Normal Exec command mode), and a subset of the configuration
commands provided for Level 15 (equivalent to CLI Privileged Exec

Level 15 provides full access to all commands.
The privilege level associated with any command can be changed using
the privilege command.
Any privilege level can access all of the commands assigned to lower
privilege levels. For example, privilege level 8 can access all commands
assigned to privilege levels 7-0 according to default settings, and to
any other commands assigned to levels 7-0 using the privilege
command .
