User accounts
A user account allows authorized user access to the switch CLI. A user account must be assigned a
role to specify the account’s access privileges. A user account can be disabled at any point,
preventing the user from logging in to the switch. A user can only be unlocked when the account is
auto-locked because the user exceeded the configured threshold for failed login attempts. Only an
administrator can create, change, unlock, or delete user accounts.
