Answers to the Chapter 2 "Do I Know This Already?"
Quiz
1
What are the two different names for the router's mode of operation that, when
accessed, enables you to issue commands that could be disruptive to router
operations?
Enable and privileged mode. Both are commonly used and found in Cisco
documentation.
2
What command would you use to receive command help if you knew that a
show
command option begins with a
c
,
but you cannot recall the option?
You would use
show c?
. Help would appear immediately after you typed the
?
symbol. You would not need to press Enter afterward; if you did so, the router would
try to execute the command with only the parameters you had typed after the
?
.
3
After typing
show ip route
, which is the only command you issued since logging in to
the router, you now want to issue the
show ip arp
command. What steps would you
take to execute this command by using command recall keystrokes?
Press the Up-arrow key, Backspace five times, and then type
arp
. The Up-arrow key
retrieves the
show ip route
command. The Backspace key moves the cursor backward
and erases the character. Typing inserts the characters into the line.
4
What is the name of the user interface mode of operation used when you cannot issue
disruptive commands?
User mode.
5
What configuration command causes the router to require a password from a user
at the console? What configuration mode context must you be in--that is, what
command(s) must be typed before this command after entering configuration mode?
List the commands in the order in which they must be typed while in config mode.
line console 0
login
The
line console 0
command is a context-setting command; it adds no information to
the configuration by itself. The command can be typed from any part of configuration
mode. The
login
command, which follows the
line console 0
command, tells the IOS
that a password prompt is desired at the console.
