Most PRIV EXEC commands set operating parameters. Privileged-level access should be password protected to prevent unauthorized use. The PRIV EXEC command set includes commands contained within the USER EXEC mode. The PRIV EXEC mode also provides access to configuration modes, and includes advanced testing commands.
Note
To password-protect the Privilege mode, in the Management Policy, configure the privilege-mode-password. For more information, see privilege-mode-password.The PRIV EXEC mode prompt consists of the hostname of the device followed by a pound sign (#).
To access the PRIV EXEC mode, enter the following at the prompt:
<DEVICE>>enable <DEVICE>#
The PRIV EXEC mode is often referred to as the enable mode, because the enable command is used to enter the mode.
There is no provision to configure a password to get direct access to PRIV EXEC (enable) mode.
