Note that:
If you configure to authenticate the users in the scheme mode, the command level available to users
logging in to a switch depends on the command level specified in the AAA scheme:
z When the AAA scheme is local authentication, the command level available to users depends on
the service-type terminal [ level level ] command.
z When the AAA scheme is RADIUS authentication, you need to set the corresponding user level on
the RADIUS server.
For the introduction to AAA, RADIUS, refer to the AAA part of this manual.
