Configuration Task List For Privilege Levels - Dell S3048-ON Configuration Manual

After you configure other privilege levels, enter those levels by adding the level parameter after the enable command or by configuring a
user name or password that corresponds to the privilege level. For more information about configuring user names, refer to
Username and Password.
By default, commands in Dell Networking OS are assigned to different privilege levels. You can access those commands only if you have
access to that privilege level. For example, to reach the protocol spanning-tree command, log in to the router, enter the enable
command for privilege level 15 (this privilege level is the default level for the command) and then enter CONFIGURATION mode.
You can configure passwords to control access to the box and assign different privilege levels to users. Dell Networking OS supports the
use of passwords when you log in to the system and when you enter the enable command. If you move between privilege levels, you are
prompted for a password if you move to a higher privilege level.
