Privilege Level - show command

Hello all,

Normally you can run the #show privilege command where you can check the privilege level that you are connected.

#show privilege
Current privilege level is 2

Is there a way to check the privilege level for others, connected through Telnet / SSH.

#show users
    Line       User       Host(s)              Idle       Location
   2 vty 1     User_A     idle                 00:00:00 192.168.0.1
*  3 vty 2     Me      idle                 00:00:00 192.168.0.2

Thank you,

Theo

hi

just 1 way I can think of in show run you should be able to see there username xxx secret xx priv 15 if there able to log into the switch it should be specified there what level they have usually near the top of the config

Great! Thank you for the response.

I use RADIUS and I have restricted privilege level to 2, so users can go to 15 when they put the secret password. I wanted to be able to double check it. 

line vty 0 4
 privilege level 2
 logging synchronous
 login authentication REMOTE
 transport input ssh
line vty 5 15
 privilege level 2
 logging synchronous
 login authentication REMOTE
 transport input ssh
