SSH client support
The following SSH clients have been tested with the CLI. Others may work as well:

When entering a value that contains spaces, you must enclose it in quotation marks. For example, if the command syntax is:
ssid <name>
you must specify one of the following:
ssid ANameWithNoSpaces ssid "A name with spaces"
