3.3.3 Enabling Router Configuration Modes
The Matrix E1 CLI provides different modes of router operation for issuing a subset of commands
from each mode. Table 3-10 describes these modes of operation.
NOTE: The command prompts used in examples throughout this guide show a system
where VLAN 1 has been configured for routing. The prompt changes depending on your
current configuration mode, and the interface types and numbers configured for routing
on your system.
