Create a User Profile
Users are included in a user group and assigned certain privileges. The users have restricted access to the commands and configurations in the System Admin console, based on assigned privileges.
NCS 1004 supports up to 1024 user profiles.
![]() Note |
Users who are created in the System Admin are different from users who are created in XR. As a result, the username and password of a System Admin user cannot be used to access the XR, and the other way round. |
As a XR user, you can access the System Admin by entering the admin command in the XR EXEC mode. NCS 1004 does not prompt you to enter any username and password. As a XR user, you are provided full access to the System Admin console.
