super password
Command Reference Guide
User level refers to the class of a login user. There are 4 user levels
corresponding to 4 command levels. After a user of certain level logs in, it can
only use the commands of the same or lower level.
There are 4 command levels access, monitor, configure and manage, as
follows:
■ Access: Includes the network diagnosis tool commands (ping, tracert);
commands for accessing an external device from local device (including
Telnet client, SSH client, RLOGIN), etc. Commands of this level cannot
perform configuration file saving operation.
■ Monitor: Commands used for system maintenance, service fault diagnosis
and so on, including the display and debugging commands. Commands
of this level cannot perform configuration file saving operation.
■ Configure: Service configuration commands, including routing commands
and commands of various network layers. Commands of this level provide
direct network services for users.
■ Manage: Commands related to basic system running and system support
modules. These commands provide support for various services.
Commands of this level include file system, FTP, TFTP, Xmodem
download and configuration file switchover commands, power control
commands, standby board control commands, user management
commands, level setting commands, system internal parameter setting
commands (not being provided in protocols or RFC documentation), etc.
To prevent unauthorized users from intruding the system, you must pass the
authentication when you are trying to switch from current user to a higher-level
user. This means that you must enter the password of the higher-level user (if
the super password [ level user-level ]{ simple | cipher } line command is
configured). For the sake of security, your entered password is not directly
displayed on the screen. If you enter the correct password within three times,
you will be able to switch to the higher-level user, or you will stay at current
level.
For the related command, see super password.
