Not able to enter global configuration mode with C1111

[arr48]

I have an SD-WAN router C1111-8P. I'm unable to enter the global configuration mode with this router.

With C1121-8P I can enter global configuration mode by enabling the autonomous mode.

Is there a similar process in C1111 router?

Hey,

What happens when you issue the commands:

enable
conf t

[arr48]

says not a valid command

can only work with configure-transaction....so is there an autonomous and controller mode with C1111-8P router?

[svemulap@cisco.com]

IOS-XE devices in SDWAN mode works with config-transaction.

Default mode is autonomous mode.
You can switch between the modes using CLI: controller-mode

#controller-mode ?
disable controller-mode disable
enable controller-mode enable
reset controller-mode reset


Check the release/compatibility release:
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/routers/sdwan/release/compatibility/sdwan-device-compatibility.html
for C1111-8P model (ISR 1000 series model) This platform is covered as part of IOS-XE SDWAN mode.

There is a procedure to toggle between controller mode and autonomous mode.
Some useful info. between autonomous vs. controller mode:
