Switching the user privilege level

Users can switch to a different user privilege level without logging out and terminating the current

connection. After the privilege level switching, users can continue to manage the device without

relogging in, but the commands they can execute have changed. For example, with the user privilege
level 3, a user can configure system parameters. After switching to user privilege level 0, the user can

execute only basic commands like ping and tracert and use a few display commands. The switching

operation is effective for the current login. After the user relogs in, the user privilege restores to the

original level.
