When you create a new user role, you can first inherit permissions from one of the system defined roles. Otherwise you would have to create a user role's command permissions from scratch. You then restrict commands or add commands to that role NOTE: You can change user role permissions on system pre-defined user roles or user-defined user roles. Important Points to Remember Consider the following when creating a user role: • Only the system administrator and user-defined roles inherited from the system administrator can create roles and user names. Only the system administrator, security administrator, and roles inherited from these can use the "role" command to modify command permissions. The security administrator and roles inherited by security administrator can only modify permissions for commands they already have access to. • Make sure you select the correct role you want to inherit. • If you inherit a user role, you cannot modify or delete the inheritance. If you want to change or remove the inheritance, delete the user role and create it again. If the user role is in use, you cannot delete the user role. 1 Create a new user role CONFIGURATION mode userrole name [inherit existing-role-name] 2 Verify that the new user role has inherited the security administrator permissions.

Create a new user role, myrole and inherit security administrator permissions. Dell(conf)#userrole myrole inherit secadmin Security 797
