Quick Steps for Network Administrator User Accounts
1 Configure the user with the relevant username and password. For example, to create a user called
thomas with a password of techpubs, enter the following:
-> user thomas password techpubs
For information about creating a user and setting up a password, see “Creating a User” on page 7-8.
2 Configure the user privileges (and SNMP access) if the user should have privileges that are different
than those set up for the default user account. For example:
-> user thomas read-write domain-network ip-helper telnet
For information about the default user settings, see the next section. For information about setting up privi-
leges, see “Configuring Privileges for a User” on page 7-15.

following:
-> show user thomas
