This chapter summarizes the global-configuration commands in the CLI command structure.
The term global indicates characteristics or features effecting the system as a whole. Use the Global Configuration Mode to configure the system globally, or enter specific configuration modes to configure specific elements (such as interfaces or protocols). Use the configure terminal command (under PRIV EXEC) to enter the global configuration mode.
The following example describes the process of entering the global configuration mode from the privileged EXEC mode:
<DEVICE>#configure terminal <DEVICE>(config)#
Note
The system prompt changes to indicate you are now in the global configuration mode. The prompt consists of the device host name followed by (config) and a pound sign (#).Commands entered in the global configuration mode update the running configuration file as soon as they are entered. However, these changes are not saved in the startup configuration file until a commit → write → memory command is issued.
