2.2.5 Command Modes

The CLI groups commands into modes according to the command function. Each of the
command modes supports specific 7200RS Series Stackable Switch software commands.
The commands in one mode are not available until you switch to that particular mode,
with the exception of the User EXEC mode commands. You can execute the User EXEC
mode commands in the Privileged EXEC mode.
The command prompt changes in each command mode to help you identify the current
mode. Table 2-6 describes the command modes and the prompts visible in that mode.
