Multilevel access allows you to:
• Add multiple user names, passwords, and access privileges to the router.
• Manage the distribution of user names, passwords, and access privileges from
the BCC.
• View event logs showing each BCC command issued and the user responsible
for issuing the command.
For more information on how to configure and use multilevel access features,
refer to Appendix A, “Multilevel Access
.” For a list of system commands and the
privilege level required to execute them, refer to Appendix B, “System
Commands.”
Terminology and Concepts
This section describes key terms and concepts of the BCC interface.
Configuration Hierarchy
The BCC configuration hierarchy begins at a root-level object, called box for
AN/ANH, ARN, and BN platforms, and stack for ASN and System 5000
platforms. Under the root-level object are branch objects such as interfaces and
protocols that fan out from root level in a tree hierarchy.
You use the
help tree -all
and
show config -all
commands to display the
configuration hierarchy of a Bay Networks router:
•The
help tree -all
command displays the hierarchy of every object you can
configure. (These are the configuration choices you can make. These are not
objects already configured.)
•The
show config -all
command displays the hierarchy of objects you have
actually configured.

illustrates a sample BCC configuration for an AN, BN, or ARN router.
