Chapter 2: Using the Command-Line Interface 15
Command Modes
The CLI groups commands into modes according to the command function. Each
of the command modes supports specific CN1610 software commands. The
commands in one mode are not available until you switch to that particular mode,
with the exception of the User EXEC mode commands. You can execute the User
EXEC mode commands in the Privileged EXEC mode.
The command changes in each command mode to help you identify the current
mode. The following CLI Command Modes table describes the command modes
and the prompts visible in that mode:
