Admin Mode prompt “Switch#” can be entered under the User Mode by running the enable
command and entering the corresponding admin user password, if set. Or, when the exit command is
run under Global Mode, it will return to the Admin Mode. ES4710BD also provides the shortcut key
sequence "Ctrl+z”, that allows an easy way to exit to Admin Mode from any configuration mode
(except User Mode).
Under Admin Mode, the user can query the switch configuration information, connection status
and traffic statistics of all ports; and the user can further enter the Global Mode from Admin Mode
to modify all configurations of the switch. For this reason, a password must be set for entering
Admin mode to prevent unauthorized access and malicious modification to the switch.
