Configuring Custom Privilege Levels
In addition to assigning privilege levels to the user, you can configure the privilege levels of commands so
that they are visible in different privilege levels.
Within the Dell Networking OS, commands have certain privilege levels. With the privilege command, you
can change the default level or you can reset their privilege level back to the default.
•
Assign the launch keyword (for example, configure) for the keyword's command mode.
•
If you assign only the first keyword to the privilege level, all commands beginning with that keyword are
also assigned to the privilege level. If you enter the entire command, the software assigns the privilege
level to that command only.
To assign commands and passwords to a custom privilege level, use the following commands. You must be
in privilege level 15.
1
Assign a user name and password.
CONFIGURATION mode
username name [access-class access-list-name] [privilege level] [nopassword |
password [encryption-type] password]
Configure the optional and required parameters:
•
name: enter a text string (up to 63 characters).
•
access-class access-list-name: enter the name of a configured IP ACL.
•
privilege level: the range is from 0 to 15.
•
nopassword: do not require the user to enter a password.
•
encryption-type: enter 0 for plain text or 7 for encrypted text.
•

2
Configure a password for privilege level.
CONFIGURATION mode

To change only the password for the enable command, configure only the password parameter.
