Logging In and Logging Out
The Command Line Interface allows a single Telnet client to be connected to the switch. If
a Telnet client logs out, or if after 15 minutes of inactivity the client’s access times out,
another Telnet client may log in. Also note that the Telnet client (user) must log in any time
the director or switch is restarted because the current user’s access is lost. Examples of a
restart include an IPL and any power-off situation.
User Access Rights
The Command Line Interface supports two user access rights: Administrator and Operator.
A user who logs in with Administrator access rights can use all of the commands described
in this publication. However, Operator access rights grant permission to use only the perf
and show branches of the CLI command tree (for example, the perf.traffic and
show.system commands), as well as the globally available commands (login, logout, and
commaDelim).
