User Exec Mode - Dell PowerConnect 3424 Cli Reference Manual

When starting a session, the initial mode is the User EXEC mode. Only a limited subset of
commands are available in the User EXEC mode. This level is reserved for tasks that do not
change the configuration. To enter the next level, the Privileged EXEC mode, a password is
required.
The Privileged EXEC mode gives access to commands that are restricted on User EXEC mode
and provides access to the device Configuration mode.
The Global Configuration mode manages the device configuration on a global level.
The Interface Configuration mode configures specific interfaces in the device.

User EXEC Mode

After logging into the device, the user is automatically in the User EXEC command mode
unless the user is defined as a privileged user. In general, the User EXEC commands allow the
user to perform basic tests, and list system information.
