Using the Command Line Interface (CLI)<br />

Overview<br />

Overview<br />

The CLI is a text-based command interface for configuring and monitoring the<br />

access point. The CLI gives you access to the access point’s full set of<br />

commands while providing the same password protection that is used in the<br />

web browser interface.<br />

<strong>Access</strong>ing the CLI<br />

The CLI is accessed through the access point console. You can access the<br />

console out-of-band by directly connecting a terminal device to the access<br />

point, or in-band by using Telnet.<br />

Using the CLI<br />

The CLI offers these privilege levels to simplify configuration:<br />

1. Exec<br />

2. Global Configuration<br />

3. Context Configuration<br />

Not e CLI commands are not case-sensitive.<br />

3-2<br />

When you use the CLI to make a configuration change, the access point<br />

immediately saves the change to non-volatile memory. Whenever you reboot<br />

the access point, all changes made since the last reboot are retained.<br />

Privilege Level at Logon<br />

The access point provides a single password for the CLI. To secure management<br />

access to the access point, you must set the Manager password. Without<br />

a Manager password configured, anyone having serial port or Telnet access<br />

to the access point can reach all CLI command modes.
