Access level Description Default
logon
Default
password
Layer 1 read-write View most switch configuration and status
information and change physical port
settings.
l1 l1
Layer 2 read-write View and change configuration and status
information for Layer 2 (bridging and
switching) functions.
l2 l2
Layer 3 read-write View and change configuration and status
information for Layer 2 and Layer 3
(routing) functions.
l3 l3
Read-write View and change configuration and status
information across the switch. Read-write
access does not allow you to change
security and password settings. This
access level is equivalent to SNMP read-
write community access.
rw rw
Read-write-all Permits all the rights of read-write access
and the ability to change security settings.
This access level allows you to change
the Avaya command line interface (ACLI)
and Web-based management user
names and passwords and the SNMP
community strings.
rwa rwa
You can enable or disable users with particular access levels, eliminating the need to maintain large
numbers of access levels and passwords for each user.
The system denies access to a user with a disabled access level who attempts to log on. The
following error message appears after a user attempts to log on with a blocked access level:
CPU1 [mm/dd/yy hh:mm:ss] 0x0019bfff GlobalRouter ACLI WARNING Slot 1: Blocked
unauthorized acli access
The system logs the following message to the log file:
User <user-name> tried to connect with blocked access level <access-level> from <src-
ipaddress> via <login type>.
The system logs the following message for the console port:
User <user-name> tried to connect with blocked access level <access-level> from console
port.
RADIUS authentication
Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service (RADIUS) authentication takes precedence over the
local configuration. If you enable RADIUS authentication on the switch, the user can access the
switch even if you block an access level on the switch.
