CLI Modes

The CLI is segregated into different command modes. Each mode has its own set of commands for
configuration, maintenance and monitoring. The commands available at any given time depend on
the mode you are in, and to a lesser extent, the particular Mobility RFS6000 Controller or Mobility
RFS7000 Controller model used. Enter a question mark (?) at the system prompt to view a list of
commands available for each command mode/instance.
Use specific commands to navigate from one command mode to another. The standard order is:
USER EXEC mode, PRIV EXEC mode and GLOBAL CONFIG mode.
A session generally begins in the USER EXEC mode (one of the two access levels of the EXEC
mode). For security, only a limited subset of EXEC commands are available in the USER EXEC
mode. This level is reserved for tasks that do not change the configuration of the controller (such
as determining the current controller configuration).
To access commands, enter the PRIV EXEC mode (the second access level for the EXEC mode).
Once in the PRIV EXEC mode, enter any EXEC command. The PRIV EXEC mode is a superset of the
USER EXEC mode.
Most of the USER EXEC mode commands are one-time commands and are not saved across
controller reboots. For example, the show command displays the current configuration and the
clear command clears the interface.
