For example, to define directory access for username picard, enter:

(config)# username picard password “captain” superuser NWBNNNR

To display a list of existing usernames, enter:

(config)# username ?

To remove an existing username, enter:

(config)# no username picard

To change a user password, reenter the username command and specify the new password. Remember to include SuperUser privileges if required. For example:

(config)# username picard password “flute” superuser

Caution The no username command removes a user permanently. Make sure you want to perform this action because you cannot undo this command.
