Quick Steps for Network Administrator User Accounts
1 Configure the user with the relevant username and password. For example, to create a user called
thomas with a password of pubs, enter the following:
-> user thomas password techpubs
For information about creating a user and setting up a password, see “Creating a User” on page 7-8.
2 Configure the user privileges (and SNMP access) if the user should have privileges that are different
than those set up for the default user account. For example:
-> user thomas read-write domain-network ip-helper telnet
For information about the default user settings, see the next section. For information about setting up priv-
ileges, see “Configuring Privileges for a User” on page 7-11.
Note. Optional. To verify the user account, enter the show user command. The display is similar to the
following:
User name = admin
Read Only for domains = None,
Read/Write for domains = All ,
Snmp not allowed
User name = public
Read Only for domains = None,
Read/Write for domains = All ,
Snmp authentication = NONE, Snmp encryption = NONE
User name = thomas
Read Only for domains = None,
Read/Write for domains = Network ,
Read/Write for families = telnet ip-helper ,
Snmp not allowed
User name = default
Read Only for domains = None,
