mode:

BPS2000>
• Privileged EXEC—BPS2000#
• Global Configuration—BPS2000(config)#

Refer to Appendix A, for a complete, alphabetical list of all CLI commands and
where they are explained.
The initial command mode in CLI depends on your access level when you logged
into the BPS 2000 CI menus:
• With no password protection, you enter the CLI in userExec mode, and use
the
enable command to move to the privExec command mode.
• If you logged into the CI menus with read-only access, you enter the CLI in
userExec mode and cannot access any other CLI command modes.
