DXS-3400 Series Lite Layer 3 Stackable 10GbE Managed Switch CLI Reference Guide Privileged EXEC Mode at Advanced User Level This command mode is mainly designed for checking basic system settings, allowing users to change the local terminal session settings and carrying out basic network connectivity verification. One limitation of this command mode is that it cannot be used to display information related to security. This command mode can be entered by logging in as an advanced user. Privileged EXEC Mode at Power User Level User logged into the switch in privileged EXEC mode at this level can execute fewer commands than operator, including the configuration commands other than the operator level and administrator level commands. The method to enter privileged EXEC mode at power user level is to login to the switch with a user account that has a privileged level of 8. Privileged EXEC Mode at Operator Level Users logged into the switch in privileged EXEC mode at this level can change both local and global terminal settings, monitor, and perform system administration tasks (except for security related information). The method to enter privileged EXEC mode at operator level is to login to the switch with a user account that has a privilege level of 12. Privileged EXEC Mode at Administrator Level This command mode has a privilege level of 15. Users logged in with this command mode can monitor all system information and change any system configuration settings mentioned in this Configuration Guide. The method to enter privileged EXEC mode at administrator level is to login to the switch with a user account that has a privilege level of 15. Global Configuration Mode The primary purpose of the global configuration mode is to apply global settings on the entire switch. Global configuration mode can be accessed at advanced user, power user, operator or administrator level user accounts. However, security related settings are not accessible at advanced user, power user or operator user accounts. In addition to applying global settings on the entire switch, the user can also access other sub-configuration modes. In order to access the global configuration mode, the user must be logged in with the corresponding account level and use the configure terminal command in the privileged EXEC mode. In the following example, the user is logged in as an Administrator in the Privileged EXEC Mode and uses the configure terminal command to access the Global Configuration Mode: Switch# configure terminal Switch(config)# The exit command is used to exit the global configuration mode and return to the privileged EXEC mode. Switch(config)# exit Switch# The procedures to enter the different sub-configuration modes can be found in the related chapters in this Configuration Guide. The command modes are used to configure the individual functions. Interface Configuration Mode Interface configuration mode is used to configure the parameters for an interface or a range of interfaces. An interface can be a physical port, VLAN, or other virtual interface. Thus, interface configuration mode is distinguished further according to the type of interface. The command prompt for each type of interface is slightly different. 4
