Using the EXEC Command Interpreter
You modify the configuration of your router through the software command interpreter called the
EXEC
(also called enable mode)
.
You must enter the privileged level of the EXEC command interpreter with
the
enable
command before you can use the
configure
command to configure a new interface or change
the existing configuration of an interface. The system prompts you for a password if one has been set.
The system prompt for the privileged level ends with a pound sign (#) instead of an angle bracket (>).
At the console terminal, use the following procedure to enter the privileged level:
Step 1
At the user-level EXEC prompt, enter the
enable
command. The EXEC prompts you for a
privileged-level password as follows:
Router>
enable
Password:
Step 2
Enter the password (the password is case sensitive). For security purposes, the password is not displayed.
When you enter the correct password, the system displays the privileged-level system prompt (#):
