3-8Configuration Commands
Configuration commands are privileged level commands used to modify
switch settings. These commands modify the running configuration only
and are not saved when the switch is rebooted. To store the running
configuration in nonvolatile storage, use the copy running-config
startup-config command.
The configuration commands are organized into three different modes:
Global Configuration - These commands modify the system level
configuration, and include commands such a s hostname and
snmp-server community.
Interface Configuration - These commands modify the port
configuration such as speed-duplex and negotiation.
Line Configuration - These commands modify the console port
configuration, and include command such as parity and databits.

“Console(config)#” which gives you access privilege to all Global
Configuration commands.

the “interface ...,” “line...” or “vlan database” command while in
