1 Set up a user profile through the 

 command. For example, configure a profile called 

Profile1 that specifies read-write access to the physical and basic-ip-routing command areas:

-> end-user profile Profile1 read-write physical basic-ip-routing

2 Specify ports to which the profile will allow access. In this example, Profile1 will be configured with 
access to ports on slot 1 and slot 2.

-> end-user profile Profile1 port-list 1/1-2 1/4-5 2/1-8

3 Specify VLANs or VLAN ranges to which the profile will allow access. In this example, Profile1 will 
be configured with access to VLANs 3 through 8.

-> end-user profile Profile1 vlan-range 3-8

Note. Optional. To verify the end-user profile, enter the 

 command. The display is 

similar to the following:

End user profile : Profile1 

Area accessible with read and write rights : 

physical, 

basic ip routing,

Slot : 1, ports allowed : 1-2, 4-5

my_passwd:
