Super Authentication-Mode; Authentication-Mode ························································································································1 - H3C S3100 Series Command Manual

Description
Use the super command to switch from the current user level to a specified level.
Executing this command without the level argument will switch the current user level to level 3 by
default.
Note that:
Users logged into the switch fall into four user levels, which correspond to the four command levels
respectively. Users at a specific level can only use the commands at the same level or lower levels.
You can switch between user levels after logging into a switch successfully. The high-to-low user
level switching is unlimited. However, the low-to-high user level switching requires the
corresponding authentication. The authentication mode can be set through the super
authentication-mode command.
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
authentication information.
