Abstract
A method includes selecting a first connection between a connection manager and a managed system, the first connection being associated with a first privilege level, communicating by the connection manager a first command to the managed system via the first connection, determining that a second command is executable on the managed system using a connection that is associated with a second privilege level, the second privilege level being a lower privilege level than the first privilege level, selecting a second connection between the connection manager and the managed system, the second connection being associated with the second privilege level, and communicating, by the connection manager, the second command to the managed system via the second connection.
