User EXEC Mode
You enter User EXEC (or simply EXEC) mode after logging in. The following
sample commands can be entered in EXEC mode:

enable
 ping
Privileged EXEC Mode
In order to make the changes to the configuration, you must enter PRIV EXEC
mode. Some configuration parameters specified in this mode apply to
XSR global settings such as the system clock.
Global Configuration Mode
In Global configuration mode you can configure many different resources
such as ports, interfaces, and routing tables. The following levels are provided
at the Global configuration level:
 Interface Level: At this level you can modify/assign specific port
parameters on a port-by-port basis. You can enter this level by typing
interface interface-type <interface #> at the Global
configuration command prompt. For example, you can enter:
XSR(config)#interface gigabitethernet 3
The XSR-1850 will return the following prompt:
XSR(config-if<G3>)#
 Router level: At this level you can configure parameters associated
with the RIP or OSPF protocols. You reach this level by typing router
[RIP, OSPF] in Global mode. For example, enter:
XSR(config)#router rip
The XSR-1850 will return the following prompt:
XSR(config-router)#
 Several other levels are available in Global mode including AAA,
Class-Map, Crypto, Dialer, IP, and Map-Class. Many of these modes
have additional levels nested within them.
