The Global Configuration mode manages the device configuration on a global level.
The Interface Configuration mode configures specific interfaces in the device.
1.1.2 User EXEC Mode
After logging into the device, the user is automatically in User EXEC command mode unless the user is defined as
a privileged user. In general, the User EXEC commands allow the user to perform basic tests, and list system
information.
The user-level prompt consists of the device host name followed by the angle bracket (>).
The default host name is Console unless it has been changed using the hostname command in the Global Con-
figuration mode.
1.1.3 Privileged EXEC Mode
Privileged access is password protected to prevent unauthorized use because many of the privileged commands
set operating system parameters. The password is not displayed on the screen and is case sensitive.
Privileged users enter directly into the Privileged EXEC mode. To enter the Privileged EXEC mode from the User
EXEC mode, perform the following steps:
1. At the prompt enter the enable command and press <Enter>. A password prompt is displayed.
2. Enter the password and press <Enter>. The password is displayed as *. The Privileged EXEC mode prompt
is displayed. The Privileged EXEC mode prompt consists of the device host name followed by #.
To return from the Privileged EXEC mode to the User EXEC mode, use the disable command. The following
example illustrates how to access the Privileged EXEC mode and return to the User EXEC mode:
The exit command is used to return from any mode to the previous mode except when returning to the User
EXEC mode from the Privileged EXEC mode. For example, the exit command is used to return from the Interface
Configuration mode to the Global Configuration mode.
