Chapter 5 - Command Line Interface
To access the AP through a Telnet session, you must first set the IP address for
the AP, and set the default gateway if you are managing the AP from a different IP
subnet. For example:
If your corporate network is connected to another network outside your office or to
the Internet, you need to apply for a registered IP address. However, if you are
attached to an isolated network, then you can use any IP address that matches
the network segment to which you are attached.
After you have configured the AP with an IP address, you can open a Telnet
session.
1 From the remote host, enter the Telnet command and the IP address of the
device you want to access.
2 At the prompt, enter the user name and system password. The CLI will display
the
Enterprise AP# prompt to show that you are using executive access mode
(i.e., Exec).
3 Enter the necessary commands to complete your desired tasks.
4 When finished, exit the session with the “quit” or “exit” command.
After entering the Telnet command, the login screen is displayed:
Enterprise AP#configure
Enterprise AP(config)#interface ethernet
Enterprise AP(if-ethernet)#ip address 10.1.0.1 255.255.255.0 10.1.0.254
Enterprise AP(if-ethernet)#
To open an Telnet session:
Username: admin
Password:
Enterprise AP#
CAUTION
You can open up to four sessions to the device via Telnet.
