Chapter 6 Using the Command-Line Interface

Understanding CLI Messages

Configuration commands can also have a default form. The default form of a command returns the command setting to its default. Most commands are disabled by default, so the default form is the same as the no form. However, some commands are enabled by default and have variables set to certain default values. In these cases, the default command enables the command and sets variables to their default values.

Understanding CLI Messages

Table 6-3lists some error messages that you might encounter while using the CLI to configure your access point/bridge.

Using Command History

Cisco IOS software provides a history or record of commands that you have entered. This feature is particularly useful for recalling long or complex commands or entries, including access lists. You can customize the command history feature to suit your needs as described in these sections:
