Users Guide

unless a password is congured for a highest intermediate level. If you congure a password for an intermediate
level, enter that password when prompted. To access privilege level 15, you must congure the enable
password command. If you do not congure a password for privilege level 15, you cannot enter level 15. For
privilege levels 0 to 14, the
enable password command is optional.
Privilege levels inherit all permitted commands from all lower levels. For example, if you log in to privilege level 10
using the enable 10 command, all commands that are assigned to privilege level 10 and lower are available for
use.
