Access Point CLI Commands

S e c t i o n 6 : A c c e s s Po i n t C L I C o m m a n d s
This section describes some of the commands you use to view and configure the UAP.
The CLI performs validation on individual property values in a
set
or
add
, but does not check to see if different property
values are consistent with each other. For example, it would not provide any error if a radio's mode was set to “a” and its
channel was set to “1”. (Even though “1” is not a valid channel in “a” mode, it is a valid channel in “g” mode.) In cases where
the configuration is left in an inconsistent state, the services associated with the configuration may not be operational.
Therefore, it is important to consult the class and property reference to understand the acceptable values for properties given
the values of other properties. For more information, see
“CLI Classes and Properties Reference” on page 20
.

The following CLI command examples correspond to tasks you can accomplish on the Basic Settings tab of the Web UI for
access points.
Note:
This section does not describe every command available from the UAP CLI. The UAP is intended to be
configured primarily from the Web interface.
Note:
Before you configure the basic settings, make sure you are familiar with the names of the interfaces as
described in
“Interface Naming Conventions” on page 11
. The interface name you reference in a command
determines whether a setting applies to a wired or wireless interface, the Internal network, or to radio “one” or radio
“two.
