Setting super password control parameters

CLI commands are divided into four levels: visit, monitor, system, and manage, in ascending order.
Login users are divided into four levels accordingly, each corresponding to a command level. A user
of a certain level can only use the commands at that level or lower levels.
To switch from a lower user level to a higher one, a user needs to enter a password for authentication.
This password is called a super password. For more information on super passwords, see HPE
FlexNetwork MSR Router Series Comware 5 Fundamentals Configuration Guide.

Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Set the password aging time
