Configure Privilege Levels
Privilege levels restrict access to commands based on user or terminal line. There are 16 privilege levels, of
which three are pre-defined. The default privilege level is 1.
• Level 0—Access to the system begins at EXEC mode, and EXEC mode commands are limited to
enable, disable, and exit.
• Level 1—Access to the system begins at EXEC mode, and all commands are available.
• Level 15—Access to the system begins at EXEC Privilege mode, and all commands are available.
Create a Custom Privilege Level
Custom privilege levels start with the default EXEC mode command set. You can then customize privilege
levels 2-14 by:
• restricting access to an EXEC mode command
• moving commands from EXEC Privilege to EXEC mode
• restricting access
