Creating, Duplicating, and Editing Command Sets for Device Administration
Command sets provide decisions for allowed commands and arguments for device administration. You
can specify command sets as results in a device configuration authorization policy. Shell profiles and
command sets are combined for authorizatio n purposes, and are enforced for the duration of a user’s
session.
You can duplicate a command set if you want to create a new command set that is the same, or similar
to, an existing command set. After duplication is complete, you acc ess each command set (original and
duplicated) separately to edit or delete them.
