privilege command use.

[Chris McCann]

Hi Folks,

I am trying to use the privilege command to restrict access on a switch. Basically I wish to have users the abiltity to reset an interface using shut/no shut.

I have set the username up with privilege 7. Also setup an enable password with level 7.

privilege interface level 7 shut.

However when I log in with my new user and enable 7 I can get into conf t no problem but cannt access the interfaces, any advice please.

Chris.

Try these commands:
privilege interface level 7 shutdown
privilege configure level 7 interface
privilege exec level 7 configure terminal
privilege exec level 7 configure
