The DLP CLI is secured through an industry-standard
architecture using several levels of authentication and passwords.
To gain access to the CLI, the administrator level account credentials
are required. This can be the default “admin” account or it can
be any administrator equivalent account created in the DLPserver.
After
you authenticate to the CLI with an authorized administrator level account,
you are placed into the nonprivileged mode of the CLI. The nonprivileged
level enables you to perform basic commands.
To enter the
privileged CLI mode in which administration and system level commands
are executed, you must authenticate using the Enable account credentials
while in the nonprivileged CLI mode. This prevents unauthorized administrators
from gaining access to the critical system commands.
