Using the CLI This section contains an introduction to the Command Line Interface (CLI). Command Mode The CLI is divided into command modes. Each command mode has a specific command set. Entering a question mark ? at the system prompt (console prompt) displays a list of commands available for that particular command mode.
Page 98: Privileged Exec Mode
To list the user EXEC commands enter the command The user-level prompt consists of the host name followed by the angle bracket (>). console> NOTE: The default host name is console unless it has been modified during initial configuration. Privileged EXEC Mode This mode ensures that the Privileged access is password protected to prevent unauthorized use.
Page 99: Global Configuration Mode
command is used to move back from any mode to a previous level mode, for The exit example, from Interface Configuration Mode to Global Configuration Mode, and from Global Configuration Mode to Privileged EXEC Mode. Global Configuration Mode Global Configuration commands apply to system features, rather than a specific protocol or interface.

• Weighted Round Robin—Ensures that a single application does not dominate the forwarding capacity of PowerConnect 3324/3348. Weighted Round Robin (WRR) forwards entire queues in a round robin order. Queue priorities are defined by the queue length. The longer the queue length, the higher the queue's forwarding priority.
