What to Do Next
After completing configuration of a full set of task groups, configure a full set of user groups as
described in the
“Configuring User Groups” section.
Configuring User Groups
User groups are configured with the command parameters for a set of users, such as task groups. Entering
the usergroup command accesses the user group configuration submode. Users can remove specific user
groups by using the no form of the usergroup command. Deleting a usergroup that is still referenced in
the system results in a warning.
Use the inherit usergroup command to inherit permissions from other user groups. The user group is
inherited by the parent group and forms a union of all task IDs specified in those groups. Circular
inclusions are detected and rejected.
Restrictions
Only users associated with the WRITE:AAA task ID can configure user groups. User groups cannot
inherit properties from predefined groups, such as root-system and owner-sdr.
SUMMARY STEPS
1. configure
2. usergroup usergroup-name
Step 6
Repeat Step 5 for each task ID to be associated with
the task group named in Step 2.

Example:

or
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-tg)# commit
Saves configuration changes.
• When you issue the end command, the system prompts
you to commit changes:
Uncommitted changes found, commit them before
exiting (yes/no/cancel)?
[cancel]:
–
Entering yes saves configuration changes to the
running configuration file, exits the configuration
session, and returns the router to EXEC mode.
–
Entering no exits the configuration session and
returns the router to EXEC mode without
committing the configuration changes.
–
Entering cancel leaves the router in the current
configuration session without exiting or
committing the configuration changes.
• Use the commit command to save the configuration
changes to the running configuration file and remain
within the configuration session.
