I need to know how to get to priviledge exec mode on a cisco router??? If anyone can give me the command for that, that would really help!

To enter privileged EXEC mode, use the enable EXEC command.

enable [level]

Syntax Description

level (Optional) Privileged level on which to log in.

(Note The enable command is associated with privilege level 0. If you configure AAA authorization for a privilege level greater
than 0, this command will not be included in the command set for that privilege level.)

Enable gets me to the prompt
Router# is this priviledge exec mode?
Enable EXEC doesnt do anything.
