Using the Command Line Interface (CLI)
• Download vs. Upload - Downloads transfer files to the Access Point. Uploads transfer files from the Access Point.
The TFTP server performs file transfers in both directions.
• Group - A logical collection of network parameter information. For example, the System Group is composed of
several related parameters. Groups can also contain Tables. All items for a given Group can be displayed with a
show CLI Command.
• Image File - The Access Point software executed from RAM. To update an Access Point you typically download a
new Image File. This file is often referred to as the “AP Image”.
• Parameter - A fundamental network value that can be displayed and may be changeable. For example, the Access
Point must have a unique IP Address and the Wireless interface must be assigned an SSID. Change parameters
with the CLI set Command, and view them with the CLI show Command.
• Table - Tables hold parameters for several related items. For example, you can add several potential managers to
the SNMP Table. All items for a given Table can be displayed with a show CLI Command.•TFTP - Refers to the TFTP Server, used for file transfers.Navigation and Special KeysThis CLI supports the following navigation and special key functions to move the cursor along the prompt line.CLI Error MessagesThe following table describes the error messages associated with improper inputs or expected CLI behavior.Command Line Interface (CLI) VariationsAdministrators use the CLI to control Access Point operation and monitor network statistics. The AP supports two
types of CLI: the Bootloader CLI and the normal CLI. The Bootloader CLI provides a limited command set, and is used
when the current AP Image is bad or missing. The Bootloader CLI allows you to assign an IP Address and download a
new image. Once the image is downloaded and running, the Access Point uses the normal CLI. This guide covers the
normal CLI unless otherwise specified.Key CombinationOperationDelete or BackspaceDelete previous characterCtrl-AMove cursor to beginning of lineCtrl-EMove cursor to end of lineCtrl-FMove cursor forward one characterCtrl-BMove cursor back one characterCtrl-DDelete the character the cursor is onCtrl-UDelete all text to left of cursorCtrl-PGo to the previous line in the history bufferCtrl-NGo to the next line in the history bufferTabComplete the command line?List available commandsError MessageDescriptionSyntax ErrorInvalid syntax entered at the command prompt.Invalid CommandA non-existent command has been entered at the command prompt.Invalid Parameter NameAn invalid parameter name has been entered at the command prompt.Invalid Parameter ValueAn invalid parameter value has been entered at the command prompt.Invalid Table IndexAn invalid table index has been entered at the command prompt.Invalid Table ParameterAn invalid table parameter has been entered at the command prompt.Invalid Table Parameter ValueAn invalid table parameter value has been entered at the command prompt.Read Only ParameterUser is attempting to configure a read-only parameter.Incorrect PasswordAn incorrect password has been entered in the CLI login prompt.Download UnsuccessfulThe download operation has failed due to incorrect TFTP server IP Address or file name.Upload UnsuccessfulThe upload operation has failed due to incorrect TFTP server IP Address or file name.
