Configuring user privilege and command levels
Introduction
To avoid unauthorized access, the device defines user privilege levels and command levels. User
privilege levels correspond to command levels. When a user at a specific privilege level logs in, the user
can only use commands at that level, or lower levels.
All the commands are categorized into four levels: visit, monitor, system, and manage, and are identified
from low to high, respectively by 0 through 3.
describes the command levels.

Level Privilege Description

Involves commands for system maintenance and service fault diagnosis.
Commands at this level are not allowed to be saved after being configured. After

RFCs).
