Chapter 7 Establishing Switch Access
Avaya P334T-ML User’s Guide 37
Security Levels
There are four security access levels – User, Privileged, Configure, and Supervisor.
• The User level (‘read-only’) is a general access level used to show system
parameter values.
• The Privileged level (‘read-write’) is used by site personnel to access stack
configuration options.
• The Configure level is used by site personnel for Layer 3 configuration.
• The Supervisor level (‘administrator’) is used to define user names, passwords,
and access levels of up to 10 local CLI users, configure SNMPv3, configure
RADIUS authentication, and control access protocols to the device.
L If you wish to define more than ten users per switch, or accounts for a user on
multiple switches, use RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service).
A login name and password are always required to access the CLI and the
commands. The login name, password, and access-type (i.e., security level) for a
user account are established using the username command.
Switching between the entities, does not effect the security level since security levels
are established specifically for each user. For example, if the operator with a
privileged security level in the Switch entity switches to the Router entity the
privileged security level is retained.
L If you wish to increase security, you can change the default user accounts.
Entering the Supervisor Level
The Supervisor level is the level in which you first enter P330 CLI and establish user
names for up to 10 local users. When you enter the Supervisor level, you are asked
for a Login name. Type root as the Login name and the default password root
(in lowercase letters):
Welcome to P330
Login: root
Password:****
Password accepted.
