Example of Configuring VTY Authorization Based on MAC ACL for the Line (Per MAC Address)
DellEMC(conf)#mac access-list standard sourcemac
DellEMC(config-std-mac)#permit 00:00:5e:00:01:01
DellEMC(config-std-mac)#deny any
DellEMC(conf)#
DellEMC(conf)#line vty 0 9
DellEMC(config-line-vty)#access-class sourcemac
DellEMC(config-line-vty)#end
Role-Based Access Control
With Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), access and authorization is controlled based on a user’s role. Users are granted
permissions based on their user roles, not on their individual user ID. User roles are created for job functions and through those
roles they acquire the permissions to perform their associated job function.

Overview of RBAC
With Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), access and authorization is controlled based on a user’s role. Users are granted
permissions based on their user roles, not on their individual user ID. User roles are created for job functions and through those
roles they acquire the permissions to perform their associated job function. Each user can be assigned only a single role. Many
users can have the same role.
The Dell EMC Networking OS supports the constrained RBAC model. With a constrained RBAC model, you can inherit
permissions when you create a new user role, restrict or add commands a user can enter and the actions the user can perform.
This allows for greater flexibility in assigning permissions for each command to each role and as a result, it is easier and much
more efficient to administer user rights. If a user’s role matches one of the allowed user roles for that command, then command
authorization is granted.
