How to work with command modes
When you are configuring the switch, you are likely to want to enter show commands to
confirm the configuration. This can mean you change often between configuration modes and
Privileged Exec mode.
However, you can run Privileged Exec commands without changing mode, by using the
command:
do <command you want to run>
However, you cannot use the ? help to find out command syntax when using the do command.
Example To display information about the IP interfaces when in Global Configuration mode, enter the
command:
awplus(config)#do show ip int brief
This results in the following output:
 Entering Privileged Exec commands when in a configuration mode

vlan1 unassigned admin up running
