Defining a User’s Access Level
The end user is by default assigned to the user access level (also known as class of service, or
CoS). CoS for all user accounts have global access to all resources except for User CoS, which
has access to view only resources that the user owns. For more information, see Table 1-2
“User Access Levels” on page 47.
To change the user’s level, enter the class of service
cos command, and select one of the fol-
lowing options:
