- • User EXEC mode • Privileged EXEC mode • Global Configuration mode All other sub-configuration modes can be accessed via global configuration mode. When a user logs in to the Switch, the privilege level of the user determines the command mode the user will enter after initially logging in. The user will either log into user EXEC mode or privileged EXEC mode. Users with a basic user and advanced user level will log into the Switch in user EXEC mode. Users with power user and administrator level accounts will log into the Switch in privileged EXEC mode. Therefore, user EXEC mode can operate at either basic user level or advanced user level, and privileged EXEC mode can operate at either power user level or administrator level. The user can only enter global configuration mode from privileged EXEC mode. Therefore, global configuration mode can be accessed by users who have power user or administrator level user accounts. As for sub-configuration modes, a subset of those can only be accessed by users who have the highest secure administrator level privileges. In user EXEC mode at advanced user level, the user is allowed to enter privileged EXEC mode by entering the enable password. In privileged EXEC mode, the user is allowed to exit to the user EXEC mode at advanced user level by entering the disable command. The enable password and disable commands are functions that can be used to switch between user EXEC mode and privileged EXEC mode. The following state diagram describes the main command modes and how to enter each one: Login Power User Basic User User EXEC mode Basic user Advanced User User EXEC mode Advanced user Administrator Disable Power User Enable Enable Administrator Disable Power User Administrator Privileged EXEC mode Power user Privileged EXEC mode Administrator config Global configuration mode Administrator config mgmt-if interface vlan Interface configuration mode Administrator VLAN configuration mode Administrator Mgmt-if configuration mode Administrator vii
