Reference Guide

Configure a password for a privilege level.
CONFIGURATION mode
enable password [level level] [encryption-mode] password
Configure the optional and required parameters:
level level: Specify a level from 0 to 15. Level 15 includes all levels.
encryption-type: Enter 0 for plain text or 7 for encrypted text.
password: Enter a string.
To change only the password for the enable command, configure only the password parameter.
To view the configuration for the enable secret command, use the show running-config
command in EXEC Privilege mode.
In custom-configured privilege levels, the enable command is always available. No matter what privilege
level you entered Dell Networking OS, you can enter the enable 15 command to access and configure
all CLIs.
Configuring Custom Privilege Levels
In addition to assigning privilege levels to the user, you can configure the privilege levels of commands so
that they are visible in different privilege levels.
Within Dell Networking OS, commands have certain privilege levels. With the privilege command, you
can change the default level or you can reset their privilege level back to the default.
Assign the launch keyword (for example, configure) for the keyword’s command mode.
If you assign only the first keyword to the privilege level, all commands beginning with that keyword
are also assigned to the privilege level. If you enter the entire command, the software assigns the
privilege level to that command only.
