newrole {{[-t|--type]}} {{type_name}}

• Start a new shell with a specific SELinux level (format: s0-s0:c0.c1023 where levels range from s0 to s15, - indicates level range, categories start with c, : separates level from categories, . indicates category range):

newrole {{[-l|--level]}} {{s0-s0:c0.c1023}}
