Information
Dell EMC Networking recommends configuring a password for privilege level 15 using the enable
password command. If you do not configure a password for a level, you can switch to that level without
entering a password, unless a password is configured for a highest intermediate level. If you configure a
password for an intermediate level, enter that password when prompted. To access privilege level 15, you
must configure the enable password command. If you do not configure a password for privilege level
15, you cannot enter level 15. For privilege levels 0 to 14, the enable password command is optional.
Privilege levels inherit all permitted commands from all lower levels. For example, if you log in to privilege
level 10 using the enable 10 command, all commands that are assigned to privilege level 10 and lower
are available for use.
Example
OS10# enable
OS10# enable 10
