Modes
There are severalcommand modes available in the command-line interface (CLI). The set of commands
available to the user depends on both the mode the user is currently in and their privilege level. For each
case, the user can see all the commands that are available in a particular command mode by entering a
question mark (?) at the system prompt.
The command-line interface has two pre-defined privilege levels:
Basic User -
Privilege Level 1. This user account level has the lowest priority of the user accounts.
The purpose of this type of user account level is for basic system checking.
Administrator -
Privilege Level 15. This administrator user account level can monitor all system
information and change any of the system configuration settings expressed in this configuration
guide.
The command-line interface has a number of command modes. There are three basic command modes:
User EXEC Mode
Privileged EXEC Mode
Global Configuration Mode
All other sub-configuration modes can be accessed via the
Global Configuration Mode
.
When a user logs in to the Switch, the privilege level of the user determines the command mode the
user will enter after initially logging in. The user will either log into
User EXEC Mode
or the
Privileged
