username
Use this command to add a new user to the local user database. The default privilege level is
1. Using the encrypted keyword allows the administrator to transfer local user passwords
between devices without having to know the passwords. When the password parameter is
used along with encrypted parameter, the password must be exactly 128 hexadecimal
characters in length. If the password strength feature is enabled, this command checks for
password strength and returns an appropriate error if it fails to meet the password strength
criteria. Giving the optional parameter override-complexity-check disables the validation of
the password strength.
Format username name {password password [encrypted
[override-complexity-check] | level level [encrypted
