When users telnet to the switch through VTY 1, they need to input username test and password 12345678.
After passing the authentication, the users can only use the commands of level 0. If the users want to use
commands of levels 0, 1, 2 and 3, the following configuration is required:
[Sysname-luser-test] authorization-attribute level 3
Configuring the user privilege level under a user interface
If the authentication mode of a user interface is scheme, and SSH publickey authentication type
•
(only a username is needed for this authentication type) is adopted, the user privilege level of users
logging into the user interface is the user interface level.
• If the authentication mode of a user interface is none or password, the user privilege level of users
logging into the user interface is the user interface level.
Follow these steps to configure the user privilege level under a user interface (SSH publickey
authentication type):
