DXS-3600 Series Layer 3 Managed 10Gigabit Ethernet Switch CLI Reference Guide
This command creates user accounts with different access levels. When the user login with Level 1, the
user will be in the User EXEC Mode. The user needs to further use the enable command to enter the
Privileged EXEC Mode.
When the user login with a Level higher than or equal to 2, the user will directly enter the Privileged EXEC
Mode. Therefore, the Privileged EXEC Mode can be in Levels 2 to 15.
The user can specify the password in the encrypted form or in the plain-text form. If it is in the plain-text
form, but the service password encryption is enabled, then the password will be converted to the
encrypted form.
If the no username command is used without the user name specified, all users are removed.
By default, the user account is empty. When the user account is empty, the user will be directly in the
User EXEC Mode at Level 1. The user can further enter the Privileged EXEC Mode using the enable
command.
