10.12 Privilege Level Command
By default, the command-line interface (CLI) has two levels of access to commands: user EXEC
mode (level 1) and privileged EXEC mode (level 15). However, you can configure additional levels of
access to commands, called privilege levels, to meet the needs of your users while protecting the system
from unauthorized access. Up to 16 privilege levels can be configured, from level 0, which is the most
restricted level, to level 15, which is the least restricted level.
Access to each privilege level is enabled through separate passwords, which you specify when
configuring the privilege level.
For example, if you want a certain set of users to be able to configure only sntp option, but not allow
them access to other configuration options, you could create a separate privilege level for only specific
sntp configuration commands and distribute the password for that level to those users. These commands
are used to control CLI.
