Entering an Interface
You enter an interface context using the interface command, followed by the type of
interface, and the interface specification. For the Console and USB interfaces there is no
interface specification.
Interface types include:
FastEthernet
Serial
VLAN
Loopback
Console
USB
Tunnel
Dialer
An interface is specified with the following syntax:
interface_num[.ip_interface] [if_link_type]
For a complete discussion of the interface command syntax, see the interface command
description.

The root context prompt reflects the logged-in user level.
The Supervisor level prompt always ends with (super)#
The Privileged level prompt ends with #
The User level prompt ends with >
Note:
For the sake of consistency, this CLI Reference uses the prompt (super)# in

examples. This does not mean that the command is only available at the
Supervisor level.
As you change contexts, the command line prompt changes to reflect the context path. For
example, when you enter the access-control-list configuration context, the prompt reads
(ACL 330)#.
