strings consisting of 7 to 15 characters chosen from the 94 standard keyboard characters. Upon correct authentication, the role is selected based on the username of the operator. At the end of a session, the operator must log-out.

When a router power cycles, sessions are terminated. A user must reauthenticate to access the router.

Multiple concurrent operators. Each operator has an independent session with the router, either though Telnet, SSH, or via the console. Once authenticated to a role, each operator can access only those services for that role. In this way, separation is maintained between the role and services allowed for each operator.

The definition of all supported roles is shown in Table 5 below.
