Avaya AP-4, AP-6, AP-5 manual Command Line Interface, How To Access the CLI

Management and Monitoring Capabilities

The AP comes pre-installed with all required SSL files: default certificate, private key and SSL Certificate Passphrase installed.

Command Line Interface

The Command Line Interface (CLI) is a text-based configuration utility that supports a set of keyboard commands and parameters to configure and manage an AP.

Users enter Command Statements, composed of CLI Commands and their associated parameters. Statements may be issued from the keyboard for real time control, or from scripts that automate configuration.

For example, when downloading a file, administrators enter the download CLI Command along with IP Address, file name, and file type parameters.

How To Access the CLI

You access the CLI over a HyperTerminal serial connection or via Telnet.

During initial configuration, you can use the CLI over a serial port connection to configure an Access Point’s IP address.

When accessing the CLI via Telnet, you can communicate with the Access Point from over your LAN (switch, hub, etc.), from over the Internet, or with a “crossover” Ethernet cable connected directly to your computer’s Ethernet Port.
