Starting the Command Line Interface

When you are in Configure or Enable mode, use the exit command or press Ctrl+Z to exit to the
previous access mode.

Note:

When you exit Configure mode, the CLI will ask you whether you want to activate the
configuration commands you have issued. If you enter yes or y, the configuration
commands you issued are placed into effect and the XP-2000’s configuration is changed
accordingly. However, the changes are not written to the Startup configuration file in the
XP-2000’s boot flash and therefore are not reinstated after a reboot. See Activating
Configuration Changes and Saving the Configuration File

on page 60

for information

about saving configuration changes.
