DXS-3600 Series 10GbE Layer 2/3 Switch CLI Reference Guide • Operator - Privilege Level 12. This user account level is used to grant system configuration rights for users who need to change or monitor system configuration, except for security related information such as user accounts and SNMP account settings, etc. • Administrator - Privilege Level 15. This administrator user account level can monitor all system information and change any of the system configuration settings expressed in this configuration guide. The command-line interface has a number of command modes. There are three basic command modes: • User EXEC mode • Privileged EXEC mode • Global Configuration mode All other sub-configuration modes can be accessed via global configuration mode. When a user logs in to the Switch, the privilege level of the user determines the command mode the user will enter after initially logging in. The user will either log into user EXEC mode or privileged EXEC mode. Users with a basic user level will log into the Switch in user EXEC mode. Users with advanced user, power user, operator or administrator level accounts will log into the Switch in privileged EXEC mode. Therefore, user EXEC mode can operate at basic user level and privileged EXEC mode can operate at advanced user, power user, operator or administrator level. The user can only enter global configuration mode from privileged EXEC mode. Therefore, global configuration mode can be accessed by users who have advanced user, power user, operator or administrator level user accounts. As for subconfiguration modes, a subset of those can only be accessed by users who have the highest secure administrator level privileges. The following table briefly lists the available command modes. Only the basic command modes and some of the subconfiguration modes are enumerated. The basic command modes and basic sub-configuration modes are further described in the following chapters. Descriptions for the rest of the sub-configuration modes are not provided in this section. For more information on the additional sub-configuration modes, the user should refer to the chapters relating to these functions. The available command modes and privilege levels are described below: Command Mode / Purpose Privilege Level User EXEC Mode / Basic User level This level has the lowest priority of the user accounts. It is provided only to check basic system settings. Privileged EXEC Mode / Advanced User level This level is allowed to configure the terminal control setting. This user account can only show limited information that is not related to security. Privileged EXEC Mode / Power User level This level can execute less commands than operator, include the configure commands other than the operator level and administrator level commands. Privileged EXEC Mode / Operator level For changing both local and global terminal settings, monitoring, and performing certain system administration tasks. The system administration tasks that can be performed at this level includes the clearing of system configuration settings, except for any security related information, such as user accounts, SNMP account settings etc. Privileged EXEC Mode / Administrator level This level is identical to privileged EXEC mode at power user level, except that a user at the administrator level can monitor and clear security related settings. Global Configuration Mode / Power User level For applying global settings, including the configuration commands other than the operator level and administrator level commands. Global Configuration Mode / Operator level For applying global settings, except for security related settings, on the entire Switch. In addition to applying global settings on the entire Switch, the user can access other sub-configuration modes from global configuration mode. Global Configuration Mode / Administrator level For applying global settings on the entire Switch. In addition to applying global settings on the entire Switch, the user can access other sub-configuration modes from global configuration mode. Interface Configuration Mode / For applying interface related settings. Administrator level VLAN Interface Configuration For applying VLAN interface related settings. Mode VLAN Configuration Mode For applying settings to a VLAN. iv
