Switching to a specific user level
Table 5-2 Switch to a specific user level
Operation Command Remarks
Switch to a specified user level super [ level ]
Required
Execute this command in user
view.
z
If no user level is specified in the super password command or the super command, level 3 is
used by default.
z
For security purpose, the password entered is not displayed when you switch to another user level.
You will remain at the original user level if you have tried three times but failed to enter the correct
password.
Configuration example
After a general user telnets to the switch, his/her user level is 0. Now, the network administrator wants to
allow general users to switch to level 3, so that they are able to configure the switch.
# A level 3 user sets a switching password for user level 3.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] super password level 3 simple 123
# A general user telnets to the switch, and then uses the set password to switch to user level 3.
<Sysname> super 3
Password:
User privilege level is 3, and only those commands can be used
whose level is equal or less than this.
Privilege note: 0-VISIT, 1-MONITOR, 2-SYSTEM, 3-MANAGE
# After configuring the switch, the general user switches back to user level 0.
<Sysname> super 0
User privilege level is 0, and only those commands can be used
whose level is equal or less than this.
Privilege note: 0-VISIT, 1-MONITOR, 2-SYSTEM, 3-MANAGE
CLI Views
CLI views are designed for different configuration tasks. They are both correlated and
distinguishing. For example, once a user logs into a switch successfully, the user enters user view,
where the user can perform some simple operations such as checking the operation status and
statistics information of the switch. After executing the system-view command, the user enters
system view, where the user can go to other views by entering corresponding commands.
Table 5-3 lists the CLI views provided by S5100-SI/EI series Ethernet switches, operations that
can be performed in different CLI views and the commands used to enter specific CLI views.
