Example: After using commit to save the configurations, instead of rebooting the entire AP, ap service can be used to restart just the AP service. wlan[0,0]-> commit wlan[0,0]-> . /etc/wlan/ap service restart 2.2 AP Configuration Parameters This section describes the available AP configuration parameters. All parameters will be saved by the commit command and take effect upon next AP reboot. ACL List get acl set acl acl mode add acl mac address del acl mac address The supported ACL modes and their actions are listed in Table 9. ACL Mode Open Allow Deny Flush Disable Actions No ACL checking is performed Only allow ACLs in the ACL list Only deny ACLs in the ACL list Flush the ACL database Remove the ACL policy Table 9: Supported ACL Modes Example: Set ACL mode to allow, and add one MAC address to the ACL list. wlan[0,0]-> set acl allow wlan[0,0]-> add acl 00:03:7f:03:42:3f The command get acl will display the current ACL mode and the MAC addresses in the list. Authentication Type get authentication set authentication authmode The supported authentication types are listed in Table 10. Auto Channel Select get autochannelselect set autochannelselect If autochannelselect is enabled, AP will scan and select the best channel available. If it’s disabled, a channel must be explicitly set by the user. 32
Authentication Type Description open Open-System authentication type shared Shared-Key authentication type auto Allow Open-System or Shared Key for authentication type 802.1x 802.1x authentication type WPA WPAv1 authentication type WPA-PSK WPAv1-PSK authentication type WPA2 WPAv2 authentication type WPA2-PSK WPAv2-PSK authentication type WPA-AUTO Allow WPAv1 or WPAv2 for authentication type WPA-AUTO-PSK Allow WPAv1-PSK or WPAv2-PSK for authentication type Table 10: Supported Authentication Types Radio Channel get channel set channel If autochannelselect is enabled, get channel will display Auto. Otherwise, get channel will display the current channel or frequency, depending on the value user previously set. The command set channel can accept both channel numbers and frequency values. When channel is explicitly set, autochannelselect is automatically turned off. Cipher Suite get cipher set cipher cipher suite The supported cipher suites are Auto, WEP, TKIP and AES. Display Configuration get config This command will display the all the AP configurations. Country Code get countrycode set countrycode CC The CC is the two-letter abbreviation of a country.
