Navigating CLI Modes
The FTOS prompt changes to indicate the CLI mode. Table 2-1 lists the CLI mode, its prompt, and
information on how to access and exit this CLI mode. You must move linearly through the command
modes, with the exception of the
end command which takes you directly to EXEC Privilege mode; the exit
command moves you up one command mode level.
Note: Sub-CONFIGURATION modes all have the letters “conf” in the prompt with additional modifiers to
identify the mode and slot/port information (see Table 2-1).
