In this example, username
john will have full access to all configuration and display features. His password will automatically be encrypted unlike the previous software version whereas you have a choice.
FESX448(config)# username bob privilege 5 password b1gb0y
In this example, username
bob will have read-only level to all configuration and display features. Bob can look for the information but cannot make configuration changes.
FESX448(config)# username jack nopassword
In this example, username

The
privilege parameter specifies the following:
