modules. Additionally, for some show commands, the output fields might change based on the modules included in
the FASTPATH software.
The FASTPATH software suite includes the following modules:
• Switching (Layer 2)
• Quality of Service
• Management (CLI and SNMP)
Not all modules are available for all platforms or software releases.
1.7 Command Modes
The CLI groups commands into modes according to the command function. Each of the command modes supports
specific FASTPATH 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 prompt changes in each command mode to help you identify the current mode. Table 5 describes
the command modes and the prompts visible in that mode.
Note: The command modes available on your switch depend on the software modules that are installed.
