In general, the top (privileged) commands allow you to change terminal settings on a temporary basis, perform basic tests, and list system information. To list the commands available in top mode, enter a question mark (?) at the prompt, as shown in the following example. Enter a question mark (?) after a command to see all the options for that command.
Switch> enable |
|
Switch# ? | Reset functions |
clear | |
clock | Manage the system clock |
configure | Enter configuration mode |
copy | Copy from one file to another |
debug | Debugging functions |
disable | Turn off privileged mode command |
erase | Erase a filesystem |
exit | Exit current mode and down to previous mode |
help | Description of the interactive help system |
ip | Global IP configuration subcommands |
no | Negate a command or set its defaults |
ping | Send echo messages |
quit | Exit current mode and down to previous mode |
reload | Halt and perform a cold restart |
show | Show running system information |
SNMP related functions | |
write | Write running configuration to memory, network, or terminal |
cls | Clear screen |
Important: To retain configuration changes after a system reload you must save changes made in running configuration to the startup configuration file. From the privileged level, configurations can be saved using the write command or by using the copy
4.3 Global Configuration Mode
Global configuration commands apply to features that affect the system as a whole, rather than just one protocol or interface. Commands to enable a particular routing function are also global configuration commands. To enter the global configuration mode, use the configure command.
The following example shows how to access and exit global configuration mode and list global configuration commands.
Command | Purpose |
|
|
Switch# configure | From privileged EXEC mode, enters global configuration mode. |
|
|
Switch(config)# ? | Lists the global configuration commands. |
