Setting the Privilege Level

This section discusses setting the privilege level. See “Privilege Levels” for information on privilege levels.

Setting the Privilege Level in the CLI

To set the privilege level in the CLI, use the set command with the -privilege parameter. The user interface prompts you for confirmation before changing the privilege level to a level other than admin. The following example sets the privilege level to advanced and then to admin:

node::> set -privilege advanced
Warning: These advanced commands are potentially dangerous; use them only when
         directed to do so by Network Appliance personnel.
Do you wish to continue? (y or n): y

node::> set -privilege admin

Setting the Privilege Level in the Web Interface

To set the privilege level in the Web interface, perform the following steps:

  1. Click PREFERENCES in the navigation pane. The Web Preferences panel is displayed in the action pane.

  2. Select the appropriate privilege level from the Privilege Level drop-down menu, then click Apply Changes.

    If you are setting the privilege level to a level other than admin, a warning page is displayed; click Please Continue to confirm the change.

See the reference page for the set command for information on setting other preferences.
