The exit command is used to move back from any mode to a previous level mode, for
example, from Interface Configuration Mode to Global Configuration Mode, and from
Global Configuration Mode to Privileged EXEC Mode.
Global Configuration Mode
Global Configuration commands apply to system features, rather than a specific protocol or
interface. The Privileged EXEC Mode command
configure is used to enter the Global
Configuration Mode.
To access and list the Global Configuration Mode commands:
• At the Privileged EXEC Mode prompt enter
configure and press <Enter>. The
Global Configuration Mode prompt is displayed. The Global Configuration Mode
prompt consists of the device host name followed by the pound sign
# and (config).
console(config)#
• To list the Global Configuration commands enter the command ?.
To return from Global Configuration Mode to Privileged EXEC Mode, use one of the
following commands:
•
exit
•Ctrl+Z
The following example illustrates how to access Global Configuration Mode and return to
the Privileged EXEC Mode:
console#
console#configure
console(config)#exit
console#
Interface Configuration Mode
Interface configuration commands modify specific IP interface including bridge-group,
description, and so on. The Interface Configuration Modes are:
• VLAN—Contains commands to create and configure a VLAN as a whole, for example,
to create a VLAN and apply an IP address to the VLAN.
• Port Channel—Contains commands to configure individual ports, for example,
assigning ports to a LAG.
