Using the Command-Line Interface
The Mobility System Software (MMS) has a command-line interface (CLI) on the DWS-1008 switch that
you can use to configure and manage the switch and its attached access points.
You configure the DWS switch and AP access points primarily with set, clear, and show commands.
Use set commands to change parameters. Use clear commands to reset parameters to their defaults.
In many cases, you can overwrite a parameter with another set command.
Use show commands to display the current configuration and monitor the status of network
operations.
