Chapter 1: Getting Started with the Command Line Interface

In addition, there are commands that allow you to move between the
modes. For example, typing the EXIT command when you are in the
Interface Configuration mode returns you to the Configuration Terminal
mode. From the Privilege Executive mode, the LOGOUT command exits
the software.
If you enter a command that is not accessible from a command mode, the
software displays a “command not found” message. For example, you can
enter the SHOW SNMP command from the Privileged Executive mode,
but you cannot enter this command from the VLAN Configuration mode.
Within the manual, a command mode is listed for each command.
See the following sections for a description of each command mode:
ˆ “Privileged Executive Command Mode” on page 18
ˆ “Configuration Terminal Mode” on page 19
ˆ “Interface Configuration Command Mode” on page 20
ˆ “VLAN Configuration Command Mode” on page 21
