System-Dened RBAC User Roles
By default, the Dell EMC Networking OS provides 4 system dened user roles. You can create up to 8 additional user roles.
NOTE: You cannot delete any system dened roles.
The system dened user roles are as follows:
• Network Operator (netoperator) - This user role has no privilege to modify any conguration on the switch. You can access Exec mode
(monitoring) to view the current conguration and status information.
• Network Administrator (netadmin): This user role can congure, display, and debug the network operations on the switch. You can
access all of the commands that are available from the network operator user role. This role does not have access to the commands
that are available to the system security administrator for cryptography operations, AAA, or the commands reserved solely for the
system administrator.
• Security Administrator (secadmin): This user role can control the security policy across the systems that are within a domain or network
topology. The security administrator commands include FIPS mode enablement, password policies, inactivity timeouts, banner
establishment, and cryptographic key operations for secure access paths.
• System Administrator (sysadmin). This role has full access to all the commands in the system, exclusive access to commands that
manipulate the le system formatting, and access to the system shell. This role can also create user IDs and user roles.
The following summarizes the modes that the predened user roles can access.

User Roles
This section describes how to create a new user role and congure command permissions and contains the following topics.
• Creating a New User Role
• Modifying Command Permissions for Roles
• Adding and Deleting Users from a Role
Creating a New User Role
Instead of using the system dened user roles, you can create a new user role that best matches your organization. When you create a new
user role, you can rst inherit permissions from one of the system dened 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-dened user roles or user-dened user roles.
Important Points to Remember
Consider the following when creating a user role:
• Only the system administrator and user-dened 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
