User "Irene" on line vty3 ( 123.12.1.321 )

Dell#conf

When another user enters CONFIGURATION mode, the Dell Networking OS sends a message similar to
the following:

% Warning: User "admin" on line vty2 "172.16.1.210" is in configuration

In this case, the user is “admin” on vty2.

Navigating the CLI

The Dell Networking OS displays a CLI prompt comprised of the host name and CLI mode.

• Host name is the initial part of the prompt and is “Dell” by default. You can change the host name with

the hostname command.

• CLI mode is the second part of the prompt and reflects the current CLI mode. For a list of the Dell

Networking OS command modes, refer to the command mode list in the

Accessing the Command

Line

section.

The CLI prompt changes as you move up and down the levels of the command structure. Starting with
CONFIGURATION mode, the command prompt adds modifiers to further identify the mode. For more
information about command modes, refer to the

Command Modes

section.
