CLI Conventions
Be aware of the following MSS CLI conventions for command entry:
“Text Entry Conventions and Allowed Characters” on page 77
“User Globs, MAC Address Globs, and VLAN Globs” on page 78
“Virtual LAN Identification” on page 81
Command Prompts
By default, the MSS CLI provides the following prompt for restricted
users. The mmmm portion shows the wireless LAN switch model number
(for example, 1200).
WXmmmm>
After you become enabled as an administrative user by typing enable
and supplying a suitable password, MSS displays the following prompt:
WXmmmm#
For information about changing the CLI prompt on a wireless LAN switch,
see “set prompt” on page 107.
Syntax Notation
The MSS CLI uses standard syntax notation:
Bold monospace font identifies the command and keywords you must
type. For example:
set enablepass
Italics indicate a placeholder for a value. For example, you replace
vlan-id in the following command with a virtual LAN (VLAN) ID:
clear interface
vlan-id ip
Curly brackets ({ }) indicate a mandatory parameter, and square
brackets ([ ]) indicate an optional parameter. For example, you must
enter dynamic or port and a port list in the following command, but
a VLAN ID is optional:
clear fdb
{dynamic | port port-list} [vlan vlan-id]
