there are many employees in the department,all of them can change the configuration of the router after they enter the enable secret password. For more safe, I want give them different access level to config the router.what shall I do to solve the problem.
 
ninghi,
You need to set up usernames/password and privilege levels.
Example:
Router(config)>username jim privilege 15 password tektips
Router(config)>username bob privilege 1 password 3MTA3

Privilege levels range from 0-15. The higher the privilege level, the greater the access. For example you would use level 1 for guest and level 15 for Superuser.

I can almost see the next question already - how do you know what each level permits you to do?

You can determine what each privilege level entails.

There are three default command levels on the router.

privilege level 0 — includes the disable, enable, exit, help, and logout commands

privilege level 1 — normal level on Telnet; includes all user-level commands at the router> prompt

privilege level 15 — includes all enable-level commands at the router# prompt

Additional privileges can be configured using the 'privilege' command.

There are configuration details and examples for IOS 12.2 mainline at
