Setting super password control parameters

CLI commands fall into these levels: visit, monitor, system, and manage, in ascending order.
Accordingly, login users fall into levels, each corresponding to a command level. A user of a certain
level can only use the commands at that level or lower levels.
To switch from a lower user level to a higher one, a user needs to enter a password for authentication.
This password is called a super password. For details on super passwords, see Fundamentals
Configuration Guide.

Use the command...
