Using the CLI 59
The following example illustrates how to access Privileged Exec mode and return back to the User
EXEC mode:
The Exit command is used to return from any mode to the previous mode except when returning
to 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
Global Configuration Mode
Global Configuration mode commands apply to features that affect the system as a whole, rather
than just a specific interface. The Privileged EXEC mode command
configure is used to enter the
Global Configuration mode.
To enter the Global Configuration mode perform the following steps:"
1 At the Privileged EXEC mode prompt enter the command configure and press <Enter> .
The Global Configuration mode prompt is displayed. The Global Configuration mode
prompt consists of the device "host name" followed by the word "(config)" and "
# ".
To return from the Global Configuration mode to the Privileged EXEC mode, the user can use one
of the following commands:
•exit
•end
• Ctrl+Z
The following example illustrates how to access Global Configuration mode and returns to the
Privileged EXEC mode:
console>enable
Enter Password: ******
console#
console#disable
console>
console(config)#
console#
console#configure
console(config)#exit
console#
