CLI Interfaces
The CLI provides the user with a number of interfaces that contain related parameters and
controls. Some of these interfaces are hardware interfaces, such as Ethernet, while others are
virtual interfaces that contain a set of related parameters.
The available interfaces are:
•
wlan1, wlan2, wlan3, wlan4 – controls for the virtual APs supported by the EL-500
•
eth0 – controls for the Ethernet interface
•
br0 – controls for bridge mode
•
firewall – controls firewall settings
•
qos – controls Quality of Service (QoS) settings
•
version – displays version information for the installed firmware
•
system – system settings
The currently selected interface is shown as part of the command prompt. For example, when
the wlan1 interface is selected, the command prompt will be
wlan1>
After logging in, no interface is selected by default. Before setting or retrieving any parameters,
an interface must be selected.

beginning of the line.
4.4.2

Ctrl+C cancels the input on the current command line and moves the cursor to a new, blank
command line.
