4.1 Command Line Interface Introduction
The Command Line Interface (CLI) is the user interface to the switch’s embedded software
system. You can view the system information, show the status, configure the switch and
receive a response back from the system by keying in a command.
There are some different command modes. Each command mode has its own access
ability, available command lines and uses different command lines to enter and exit. These
modes are User EXEC, Privileged EXEC, Global Configuration, (Port/VLAN) Interface
Configuration modes.
