4.2.1.1.2Admin Mode

Admin Mode prompt “Switch#” can be entered under the User Mode by running the enable command and entering the corresponding admin user password, if set. Or, when the exit command is run under Global Mode, it will return to the Admin Mode. ES4710BD also provides the shortcut key sequence "Ctrl+z”, that allows an easy way to exit to Admin Mode from any configuration mode (except User Mode).

Under Admin Mode, the user can query the switch configuration information, connection status and traffic statistics of all ports; and the user can further enter the Global Mode from Admin Mode to modify all configurations of the switch. For this reason, a password must be set for entering Admin mode to prevent unauthorized access and malicious modification to the switch.

4.2.1.1.3Global Mode

Type the config command under Admin Mode to enter the Global Mode, and prompt “Switch(Config)#” will appear. Use the exit command under other configuration modes such as Interface Mode or VLAN mode to return to Global Mode.

The user can perform global configuration settings under Global Mode, such as MAC Table, Port Mirroring, VLAN creation, IGMP Snooping start, GVRP and STP, etc. The user can also go further to Interface Mode for configuration of all the interfaces

4.2.1.1.3.1Interface Mode
