Configuring Objects that Require Reboot
Certain objects supported by the Access Point require a device reboot in order for the changes to take effect. In order
to inform the end-user of this behavior, the CLI provides informational messages when the user has configured an
object that requires a reboot. The following messages are displayed as a result of the configuring such object or
objects.
Example 1: Configuring objects that require the device to be rebooted
The following message is displayed every time the user has configured an object that requires the device to be
rebooted.
[Device-Name]>
set ipaddr 135.114.73.10
The following elements require reboot
ipaddr
Example 2: Executing the “exit”, “quit”, or “done” commands when an object that requires reboot has
been configured
In addition to the above informational message, the CLI also provides a message as a result of the
exit
,
quit
, or
done
command if changes have been made to objects that require reboot. If you make changes to objects that require
reboot and execute the exit command the following message is displayed:
[Device-Name]>
exit
<CR> OR
quit
<CR> OR
done
<CR>
Modifications have been made to parameters that require the device to be rebooted. These
changes will only take effect after the next reboot.
“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 examples, parameters may be set individually or 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>
Example:
[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.
