super [ rolename ]

Views

User view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

mdc-admin

Parameters

rolename: Specifies a user role, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 63 characters. The user role must exist in the system. If you do not specify a user role, you obtain the default target user role.

Usage guidelines

The obtained user role is a temporary user role, because this command is effective only on the current login. The next time you are logged in with the user account, the original user role settings take effect.

To enable users to obtain another user roles without reconnecting to the device, you must configure user role authentication.

• If no local password is configured in the local password authentication (local), an AUX user can obtain the user role by either entering a string or not entering anything.

• If no local password is configured in the local-then-remote authentication (local scheme):

  • A VTY user performs remote authentication.

  • An AUX user can obtain user role authorization by either entering a string or not entering anything.

Examples

# Obtain the network-operator user role.

<Sysname> super network-operator
Password: 
User privilege role is network-operator, and only those commands can be used that authorized to the role.
