“set” and “show” Command Examples
In general, you will use the CLI "show" Command to view current parameter values, and use the CLI "set" Command
to change parameter values. As shown in the following six examples, parameters may be set individually, and all
parameters for a given table can be set with a single statement.
to change parameter values. As shown in the following six examples, parameters may be set individually, and all
parameters for a given table can be set with a single statement.
Example 1 - Set the Access Point IP Address Parameter
Syntax:
[Device Name]>set <parameter name> <parameter value>
[Device Name]>set <parameter name> <parameter value>
Example:
[Device Name]>
[Device Name]>
set ipaddr 10.0.0.12
Result: IP Address will be changed when you reboot the Access Point. The CLI reminds you when rebooting is
required for a change to take effect. To reboot immediately, enter reboot 0 (zero) at the CLI prompt.
required for a change to take effect. To reboot immediately, enter reboot 0 (zero) at the CLI prompt.
Example 2 - Create a table entry or row
Use 0 (zero) as the index to the table when creating an entry. When creating a table row, only the mandatory table
elements are required (comment is usually an optional table element). There are other optional table elements, which,
if not entered, the default value applies.
elements are required (comment is usually an optional table element). There are other optional table elements, which,
if not entered, the default value applies.
Syntax:
[Device Name]>set <table name> <table index> <element 1> <value 1> …
[Device Name]>set <table name> <table index> <element 1> <value 1> …
<element n> <value n>
Example:
[Device Name]>
[Device Name]>
set mgmtipaccesstbl 0 ipaddr 10.0.0.10 ipmask 255.255.0.0
Result: The IP Access Table (Index 0) “IP Address” and “IP Mask” parameters are assigned 10.0.0.10 and
255.255.0.0, respectively.
255.255.0.0, respectively.
NOTE
Some tables use a different syntax. See
for details.
Example 3 - Modify a table entry or row
Use the index to be modified and the table elements you would like to modify. For example, suppose the SNMP IP
Access table has one entry and you wanted to modify the IP Address:
Access table has one entry and you wanted to modify the IP Address:
[Device Name]>set mgmtipaccesstbl 1 ipaddr 10.0.0.11
You can also modify several elements in the table entry. Enter the index number and specific table elements you would
like to modify. Hint: Use the search Command to see the elements that belong to the table.
