Managing the XSR
Exiting From the Current Mode
Each of these commands exits from your mode but with different results:
Exit: In each mode
exit quits from the current to previous mode
End:
end always returns to Privileged EXEC from either Global or
sub-configuration mode
Ctrl-Z: Same as the
end command
Be aware that you need not always exit from a mode if your current
and destination modes subscribe to the same parent in the mode tree.
