Console access includes both the menu interface and the CLI. There are two levels of console access: Manager and Operator. For security, you can set a password pair (username and password) on each of these levels.

N o t e	Usernames are optional. Also, in the menu interface, you can configure
	passwords, but not usernames. To configure usernames, use the CLI or the
	web browser interface.

Level	Actions Permitted

Manager:	Access to all console interface areas.
	This is the default level. That is, if a Manager password has not been set prior
	to starting the current console session, then anyone having access to the
	console can access any area of the console interface.
Operator:	Access to the Status and Counters menu, the Event Log, and the CLI*, but no
	Configuration capabilities.
	On the Operator level, the configuration menus, Download OS, and Reboot
	Switch options in the Main Menu are not available.

*Allows use of the ping, link-test, show, menu, exit, and logout commands, plus the enable command if you can provide the Manager password.
