To create a new user account, specify a user name and a full name, and then assign the user
to a group. Each group provides a different level of default permissions. Table 22-2 lists the
groups you can assign.
After assigning the user to a group, you must specify a password for the new account.
Passwords are encrypted when they are reported using the
showconfig CLI command.
Note — If you have lost the admin user password, contact your support provider.
