After logging into the device, User EXEC command mode is enabled. The

user-level prompt consists of the host name followed by the angle bracket

(>). For example: console>

NOTE:

The default host name is console unless it has been modified during

initial configuration.

The User EXEC commands enable connecting to remote devices, changing

terminal settings on a temporary basis, performing basic tests, and listing

system information.
To list the User EXEC commands, enter a question mark at the command

prompt.
To enter the next level, Privileged EXEC mode, a password is required (if

configured).

Privileged EXEC Mode

Privileged EXEC mode provides access to the device global configuration.

Privileged access can be protected, to prevent unauthorized access and to

secure operating parameters. Passwords are displayed on the screen, and are

case-sensitive.

than 15.

To access and list the Privileged EXEC mode commands:

1 At the prompt type enable and press <Enter>.
2 When a password prompt displays, enter the password and press

<Enter>.
The Privileged EXEC mode prompt displays as the device host name

followed by #. For example: console#
To list the Privileged EXEC commands, type a question mark at the

command prompt.
To return from Privileged EXEC mode to User EXEC mode, type

disable

and press <Enter>.
