Conguring the Enable Password Command
To congure Dell EMC Networking OS, use the enable command to enter EXEC Privilege level 15. After entering the command, Dell EMC
Networking OS requests that you enter a password.
Privilege levels are not assigned to passwords, rather passwords are assigned to a privilege level. You can always change a password for any
privilege level. To change to a dierent privilege level, enter the enable command, then the privilege level. If you do not enter a privilege
level, the default level 15 is assumed.
To congure a password for a specic privilege level, use the following command.
• Congure a password for a privilege level.
CONFIGURATION mode
enable password [level level] [encryption-mode] password
Congure the optional and required parameters:
– level level: Specify a level from 0 to 15. Level 15 includes all levels.
– encryption-type: Enter 0 for clear text, 7 for DES-encrypted text, or 8 for sha256-based encrypted text.
– password: Enter a string.
To change only the password for the enable command, congure only the password parameter.
To view the conguration for the enable secret command, use the show running-config command in EXEC Privilege mode.
In custom-congured privilege levels, the enable command is always available. No matter what privilege level you entered Dell EMC
Networking OS, you can enter the enable 15 command to access and congure all CLIs.
Conguring Custom Privilege Levels
In addition to assigning privilege levels to the user, you can congure the privilege levels of commands so that they are visible in dierent
privilege levels.
Within Dell EMC Networking OS, commands have certain privilege levels. With the privilege command, you can change the default
level or you can reset their privilege level back to the default.
• Assign the launch keyword (for example, configure) for the keyword’s command mode.
• If you assign only the rst keyword to the privilege level, all commands beginning with that keyword are also assigned to the privilege
level. If you enter the entire command, the software assigns the privilege level to that command only.
To assign commands and passwords to a custom privilege level, use the following commands. You must be in privilege level 15.
1 Assign a user name and password.
