Copying a User

CLI Syntax:

config>system>security# copy {user source-user | profile source-profile} to destination [overwrite]

Example:

config>system>security# copy user "testuser" to 
"testuserA"
MINOR: CLI User "testuserA" already exists - use overwrite flag.
config>system>security#
config>system>security# copy user "testuser" to "testuserA" overwrite
	config>system>security#

The following output displays the copied user configurations:

Note:

The cannot-change-password flag is not replicated when a copy user command is performed. A new-password-at-login flag is created instead.
