DGS-1510 Series Gigabit Ethernet SmartPro Switch CLI Reference Guide
Observe the following example.
Switch>enable
Switch#configure terminal
Switch(config)#username user1 password pass1234
Switch(config)#username user1 privilege 15
Switch(config)#line console
Switch(config-line)#login local
Switch(config-line)#
In the above example we had to navigate and access the username command.

Starting in the User EXEC Mode we enter the command enable to access the Privileged
EXEC Mode.

After accessing the Privileged EXEC Mode, we entered the command configure terminal to
access the Global Configuration Mode. The username command can be used in the Global
Configuration Mode.

The command username user1 password pass1234 creates a user account with the
username of user1 and a password of pass1234.

The command username user1 privilege 15 assigns a privilege level value of 15 to the user
account admin.

The command line console allows us to access the console interface's Line Configuration
Mode.

The command login local tell the Switch that users need to enter locally configured login
credentials to access the console interface.
Save the running configuration to the start-up configuration. This means to save the changes made so
that when the Switch is rebooted, the configuration will not be lost. The following example shows how
to save the running configuration to the start-up configuration.
Switch#copy running-config
Destination filename startup-config? [y/n]:
Saving all configurations to NV-RAM.......... Done.
Switch#
After the Switch was rebooted, or when the users logs out and back in, the newly created username
and password must be entered to access the CLI interface again, as seen below.
