Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: B, C
Explanation
At privilege level 1, your access is limited to basic commands for viewing information. Using the '?' command helps you identify what commands are available at your privilege level. Additionally, escalating your privilege level with the 'enable' command (if you have the appropriate credentials) allows you to perform advanced diagnostics and configurations. Commands like 'show interfaces' and 'show running-config' require higher privilege levels, which are inaccessible at level 1 without escalation.
- A. Incorrect.
Incorrect. With a privilege level of 1, you do not have access to the 'show interfaces' command. This command requires a higher privilege level.
- B. Correct.
Correct. The '?' command provides a list of available commands based on your current privilege level, which helps you understand what commands you can use.
- C. Correct.
Correct. The 'enable' command allows you to escalate your privilege level (if you have the required password) so you can access additional diagnostic and configuration commands.
- D. Incorrect.
Incorrect. Interface configuration commands require a higher privilege level, which you cannot access with privilege level 1.
- E. Incorrect.
Incorrect. The 'show running-config' command requires a higher privilege level, typically 15, and is not available at privilege level 1.
