Configuration mode.
Privileged EXEC Mode
A user with level 7 or 15 automatically logs into Privileged EXEC mode.

command, and when prompted, the password for level 15.
To return from the Privileged EXEC mode to the User EXEC mode, use the disable
command.

configure command at the Privileged EXEC mode prompt and press Enter. The
Global Configuration mode prompt, consisting of the device host name followed
by (config)#, is displayed:

the Privileged EXEC mode:
