CLI command categories
There are several broad groups of CLI commands available:
copy Copies files from one location on a device to another, from a device to a remote system, or from a remote
system to a device.
configure Enters CONFIGURATION mode to configure routing protocols, interfaces, network management, and user
access.
exit Moves up one command mode. To go directly to EXEC mode, use the end command.
CONFIGURATION Mode
When you initially log in to OS10, you are placed in EXEC mode. To access CONFIGURATION mode, enter the configure
terminal command. Use CONFIGURATION mode to manage interfaces, protocols, and features.
Interface mode is a sub-mode of CONFIGURATION mode. Interface mode is where you configure Layer 2 (L2) and Layer 3 (L3)
protocols, and IPv4 and IPv6 services specific to an interface:
● Physical interfaces include the Management interface and Ethernet ports
● Logical interfaces include Loopback, port-channel, and virtual local area networks (VLANs)
From CONFIGURATION mode, you can also configure L2 and L3 protocols with a specific protocol-configuration mode, such as
Spanning-Tree Protocol (STP) or Border Gateway Protocol (BGP).
