CLI Command Types

This guide divides CLI Commands into two categories: Operational and Parameter Controls.

Operational CLI Commands

These commands affect Access Point behavior, such as downloading, rebooting, and so on. After entering commands (and parameters, if any) press the Enter key to execute the Command Line.

Operational commands include:

?: Typing a question mark lists CLI Commands or parameters, depending on usage (you do not need to type Enter after typing this command)

done, exit, quit: Terminates the CLI session

download: Uses a TFTP server to download “image” files, “config” files, “bootloader upgrade” files, a “license” file, “SSL certificates”, “SSL private keys”, “SSH public keys”, “SSH private keys”, or “CLI Batch Files” to the Access Point

help: Displays general CLI help information or command help information, such as command usage and syntax

history: Remembers commands to help avoid re-entering complex statements

passwd: Sets the Access Point’s CLI password

reboot: Reboots the Access Point in the specified time

search: Lists the parameters in a specified Table

upload: Uses TFTP server to upload “config” files from Access Point to TFTP default directory or specified path
