Minimum Access Level: User
The privilege command causes the user to be prompted for an administrator password. When
the password is entered correctly, the user is placed in Administrator (privileged) mode. The
Administrator can then change configuration parameters.
Example:
PDYN>privilege
Password:
******
PDYN# _
PDYN>privilege
Password: ******
Incorrect password try again.
Password: ******
Incorrect password try again.
Password: ******
Incorrect password try again.
PDYN>_
Operational Note:
If the password is typed in incorrectly the CLI responds with the following: "Incorrect password:
Try again."
After three attempts to gain access to privilege mode with the wrong password, the administrator
is returned to the user mode prompt.
