Chapter 1 Using the CLI Entering CLI Modes Note Global Configuration mode includes a number of submodes. The commands that you can execute depend upon the current command mode and your user login. You may enter a question mark (?) at the CLI prompt to list the commands available to the current user identity in the current mode. Using User Execute Mode All CLI sessions begin in User Execute mode. This mode provides commands for viewing some of the system configuration and some user information. Guest users may only work in User Exec mode. From User Exec mode, authorized users can access Privileged Execute mode. Using Privileged Execute Mode When you enter the enable command in User Execute mode, you enter Privileged Execute mode. From Privileged Exec mode, you can view the entire system configuration and all user information. From this mode, you can perform certain high-level administrative tasks, such as save the current configuration and set the system clock. You can also access Global Configuration mode. You must enter Privileged Execute mode before you can enter Global Configuration mode. Only administrative and unrestricted users may enter Privileged Exec mode. # telnet SFS-7000P Login: super Password: xxxx SFS-7000P> enable SFS-7000P# Mode changes are reflected in changes to the CLI prompt. When you transition from User Exec mode to Privileged Exec mode, the prompt changes from SFS-7000P> to SFS-7000P#. Using Global Configuration Mode You enter Global Configuration mode from Privileged Exec mode. Global Configuration (config) mode configures system-level attributes, such as SNMP, SNMP agents, and networks. To enter config mode, enter either the configure terminal or the configure command in Privileged Exec mode. SFS-7000P# configure terminal SFS-7000P(config)# When you transition from Privileged Execute to Global Configuration mode, the prompt changes from SFS-7000P# to SFS-7000P(config)#. To configure particular elements of the Server Switch, you must enter a configuration submode specific to that element. All Ethernet, FibreChannel, and InfiniBand configuration occurs in submodes. In submodes, you can assign IP addresses to interface gateway ports, set connection speeds, set connection types, and so on. To enter the Ethernet Interface Configuration (config-if-ether) submode from Global Configuration mode, enter the interface command, specify the interface type, and specify the port(s) to configure.
