The authorization levels and command modes function together under one hierarchy. The User and
Viewer authorization levels have only a single command mode. When you enter either the Admin
authorization level or Root authorization level (these levels function in parallel), you enter the Privileged
EXEC command mode. From this command mode you can access the following command modes:
•
User EXEC authorization level
•
Viewer authorization level
•
Privileged EXEC command mode (in either the Admin authorization level or the Root authorization
level)
