Management

This chapter describes the different protocols or services used to manage the Dell Networking system.

Configuring Privilege Levels

Privilege levels restrict access to commands based on user or terminal line.
There are 16 privilege levels, of which three are pre-defined. The default privilege level is 1.
Level Description
Level 0 Access to the system begins at EXEC mode, and EXEC mode commands are limited to enable, disable,
and exit.
Level 1 Access to the system begins at EXEC mode, and all commands are available.
Level 15 Access to the system begins at EXEC Privilege mode, and all commands are available.
For information about how access and authorization is controlled based on a user's role, see

Creating a Custom Privilege Level

Custom privilege levels start with the default EXEC mode command set. You can then customize privilege levels 2-14 by:
• restricting access to an EXEC mode command
• moving commands from EXEC Privilege to EXEC mode
• restricting access
A user can access all commands at his privilege level and below.

Removing a Command from EXEC Mode

To remove a command from the list of available commands in EXEC mode for a specific privilege level, use the privilege exec
command from CONFIGURATION mode.
In the command, specify a level greater than the level given to a user or terminal line, then the first keyword of each command you
wish to restrict.

Moving a Command from EXEC Privilege Mode to EXEC Mode

To move a command from EXEC Privilege to EXEC mode for a privilege level, use the privilege exec command from
CONFIGURATION mode.
In the command, specify the privilege level of the user or terminal line and specify all keywords in the command to which you want
to allow access.

Allowing Access to CONFIGURATION Mode Commands

To allow access to CONFIGURATION mode, use the privilege exec level level configure command from
CONFIGURATION mode.
A user that enters CONFIGURATION mode remains at his privilege level and has access to only two commands, end and exit. You
must individually specify each CONFIGURATION mode command you want to allow access to using the privilege configure
