Using Command Modes
The CLI of SFTOS follows the industry convention of mode-based access to functionality,
grouping all of the CLI commands in appropriate modes according to the nature of the
commands. In other words, each of the command modes supports specific, related SFTOS
software commands. You specify through CLI commands which mode you want to access,
and then, in that mode, you enter commands that are specific to that mode. For example, if
you want to configure a VLAN, you would first enter the Interface VLAN mode by entering
the command
interface vlan vlanid at a prompt in the Global Config mode.
