Using the CLI
This section provides some general information for using the CLI.
Command Mode Overview
The CLI is divided into command modes, each with a specific command set.
Entering a question mark at the terminal prompt displays a list of commands
available for that particular command mode.
In each mode, a specific command is used to navigate from one mode to
another.
These modes are described below.
User EXEC Mode
During CLI session initialization, the CLI is in User EXEC mode. Only a
limited subset of commands is available in User EXEC mode. This level is
reserved for tasks that do not change the terminal configuration and is used
to access configuration sub-systems.
