Setting the super password

Users of the management level can specify the password for a lower-level user to switch from the current
access level to the management level. If no such a password is configured, the switchover fails.
To set the super password for switching to the management level:
Description
Set the username for a user.
Set the access level for a user. Users of different levels can perform different operations.
Listed from low to high, Web user levels are as follows:
•
Visitor—Users of this level can use the network diagnostic tools ping and trace route.
They can neither access the device data nor configure the device.
•
Monitor—Users of this level can only access the device data but cannot configure the
device.
•
Configure—Users of this level can access data from the device and configure the
device, but they cannot upgrade the host software, add/delete users, modify users, or
backup/restore the application file.
•
Management—Users of this level can perform any operations for the device.
IMPORTANT:
Only the Web, FTP, and Telnet users support the access level setting.
Set the password for a user.
Enter the same password again. Otherwise, the system prompts that the two passwords
entered are not consistent when you apply the configuration.
Set the service type, including Web, FTP, Telnet, Terminal (users logging in to the device
through the console port, AUX port, and Asyn port), and PPP services. You must select at
least one of them.
