Registering users and setting user rights

To register a user and set a user right, use the username command in global config mode.

In this example, a user is registered with the user name “nec-admin”, the password “to34kyo61”, and the user right “administrator”. To register the user with the user right “monitor”, use monitor for the parameter. The user name and the password may be up to 250 characters in total. The user name may, however, be up to 16 characters.
