Set Authentication Password - Huawei Quidway S6500 Series Command Manual

Command Manual - Getting Started
Quidway S6500 Series Ethernet Switches
When users log into the switch, the commands they can use depend jointly on the user
level settings and the command level settings on the user interface. If the two types of
settings differ,
For the users using AAA/RADIUS/HWTACACS authentication, the commands
they can use are determined by the user level settings. For example, if a use is set
to level 3 and the command level on the VTY 0 user interface is level 1, he or she
can only use the commands of level 3 or lower when logging into the switch from
the VTY 0 user interface.
For the users using RSA public key authentication, the commands they can use
are determined by the command level settings on the user interface.
By default, ping, tracert, and telnet are at visit level (0); display and debugging are at
monitoring level (1); all the configuration commands are at system level (2); and FTP,
TFTP and commands for file system operations are at management level (3).
Example
# Configure the user zbr to use commands at level 0 after logon.
[Quidway] local-user zbr
[Quidway-luser-zbr] service-type telnet level 0
# Quit the system and logs on with username "zbr" again. Now only the commands at
level 0 are listed on the terminal.
