Create a User Profile

Create new users for the System Admin. Users are included in a user group and assigned certain privileges.
The users have restricted access to the commands and configurations in the System Admin console, based on
assigned privileges.
The NCS 1002 supports a maximum of 1024 user profiles.
Note
Users created in the System Admin are different from the ones created in XR. As a result, the username and
password of a System Admin user cannot be used to access the XR, and vice versa.
The XR user can access the System Admin by entering admin command in the XR EXEC mode. The NCS
1002 does not prompt you to enter any username and password. The XR user is provided full access to the
System Admin console.
