Using the Command Line Interface

5.1.1

Accessing the CLI

When accessing the management interface over a direct connection to the console 
port, or via a Telnet connection, the Access Point (AP) unit can be managed by 
entering command keywords and parameters at the prompt. Using AP’s 
command-line interface (CLI) is very similar to entering commands on a UNIX 
system.

5.1.2

Console Connection

At the console prompt, enter the user name and password. (The default user 
name is admin and the default password is null.) When the user name is 
entered, the CLI displays the 

Enterprise AP#

 prompt. 

Enter the necessary commands to complete your desired tasks. 

When finished, exit the session with the “exit” command.

After connecting to the system through the console port, the login screen is 
displayed:

5.1.3

Telnet Connection

Telnet operates over the IP transport protocol. In this environment, your 
management station and any network device you want to manage over the 
network must have a valid IP address. Valid IP addresses consist of four numbers, 
0 to 255, separated by periods. Each address consists of a network portion and 
host portion. For example, if the AP cannot acquire an IP address from a DHCP 
server, the default IP address used by the AP, 192.168.1.1, consists of a network 
portion (192.168.1) and a host portion (1).

Command examples shown later in this chapter abbreviate the console prompt to “AP” for 
simplicity.
