NOTE: Regardless of a user's login access
level, a user cannot operate at a level higher
than the access level specified for the Telnet
session (e.g., if a user has a Level-1 login and
Level-2 telnet access has been set, the
Level-1 user can only operate as a Level-2
user).
If you are going to allow users to configure the
unit, keep the access at Level-1.
