Switching to the management level

This function allows a user to switch from the current user level to the management level. To switch to the
management level, a user must provide the correct super password.
The access level switchover of a user is valid for the current login only; it does not change the access level
configured for the user. When the user re-logs in to the Web interface, the access level of the user is still
the original level.
To switch to the management level, select Device > Users from the navigation tree, click the Switch To
Management tab, input the correct super password, and click Login.

Input the same password again. Otherwise, the system will prompt that the two
passwords input are not consistent when you apply the configuration.

Options include:

Simple: Saves the password in the configuration file in plain text so that the password

A plaintext password is not safe. It is good practice to use the cipher mode.
