Manager Privileges

Manager privileges give you three additional levels of access: Manager, Global

Configuration, and Context Configuration. A “#” character delimits any Man-

ager prompt. For example:

ProCurve#_ Example of the Manager prompt.

■ Manager level: Provides all Operator level privileges plus the ability to

perform system-level actions that do not require saving changes to the

system configuration file. The prompt for the Manager level contains only

the system name and the “#” delimiter, as shown above. To select this

level, enter the enable command at the Operator prompt and enter the

Manager password, when prompted. For example:

ProCurve> enable Enter enable at the Operator prompt.

Password: CLI prompt for the Manager password.

ProCurve# _ The Manager prompt appears after the

correct Manager password is entered.

■ Global Configuration level: Provides all Operator and Manager level

privileges, and enables you to make configuration changes to any of the

switch’s software features. The prompt for the Global Configuration level

includes the system name and “(config)”. To select this level, enter the

config command at the Manager prompt. For example:

ProCurve# config Enter config at the Manager prompt.

ProCurve(config)#_ The Global Config prompt.

■ Context Configuration level: Provides all Operator and Manager priv-

ileges, and enables you to make configuration changes in a specific

context, such as one or more ports or a VLAN. The prompt for the Context

Configuration level includes the system name and the selected context.

For example:

ProCurve(eth-1)#

ProCurve(vlan-10)#

The Context level is useful, for example, for executing several commands

directed at the same port or VLAN, or if you want to shorten the command

strings for a specific context area. To select this level, enter the specific

context at the Global Configuration level prompt. For example, to select

the context level for an existing VLAN with the VLAN ID of 10, you would

enter the following command and see the indicated result:

ProCurve(config)# vlan 10

ProCurve(vlan-10)#
