Operator Privileges
Operator privileges allow views of the current configurations but do not allow changes to
the configuration. A ">" character delimits the Operator-level prompt.
Manager Privileges
Manager privileges allow configuration changes. The changes can be done at the manager
prompt or for global configuration as well as specific configuration. A “#” character
delimits any Manager prompt.
User management
A maximum of five users can be added per switch for MNS-6K and a maximum of
twenty users can be added for MNS-6K-SECURE. Users can be added, deleted or
changed from a manager level account. There can be more than one manager account,
subject to the maximum number of users on the switch.
MNS-6K-SECURE allows a maximum of twenty (20) users. Using MNS-6K-
secure you can also configure access to the switch using capabilities,
described later on in this manual.
