User Access Privileges
User Groups
The access privileges of a user are defined by the user groups to which he or she belongs. Each user group
defines a collection of access rights for all members of that group. You can be assigned to more than one
group to gain additional access privileges.
Users are not assigned to groups by default, and must be explicitly assigned by an administrator.
Predefined User Groups
The Cisco IOS XR software includes a set of predefined user groups that meet the needs of most
organizations. The predefined user groups are described in Table 2-2.
Although the predefined user groups are sufficient for the needs of most organizations, administrators
can configure their own groups. See the “Related Documents for AAA Configuration” section on
page 2-8.
Note Although the Cisco CRS-1 router is designed to operate as a multiple-chassis system that allows for the
configuration of multiple LRs and all their interfaces and resources, Cisco IOS XR software Releases 2
and 3 support one chassis and one LR. In a single-chassis system, only one LR is necessary or operable.
Task IDs
Administrators create and modify user groups by assigning a set of task IDs to the user group name. Task
IDs are names of functions or components in the Cisco IOS XR software, such as “logging” or “basic
services.” Each of these task IDs can be assigned to a user group, along with the specific rights for that
task ID, such as “read,” “write,” or “execute.”
