Command Line Reference
In addition to the Web-based user interface, the ProSafe 802.11g Wireless Access Point includes a
command line interface (CLI) for administering the access point. The CLI lets you view and
modify status and configuration information.The CLI is particularly useful if the network
connection is not functioning because you can access the CLI through a serial port. To connect to
the WG302v2 by using the CLI, see “Using the Secure Telnet Interface” on page 3-3 and
“Accessing the CLI by Using the Console Port” on page 3-3.
The following topics provide an introduction to the class structure upon which the CLI is based,
CLI commands, and examples of using the CLI to get or set configuration information on an
access point:
• “Accessing CLI TAB Completion Help”
• “Keyboard Shortcuts”
• “Interface Naming Conventions”
• “Entering CLI Commands”
• “Using the CLI to Configure the ProSafe 802.11g”
Accessing CLI TAB Completion Help
Press the TAB key twice to show a list of available commands or keywords. You can also use TAB
to complete a command after you enter enough characters to uniquely identify a command. If
multiple completions exist, the system beeps. Type TAB again, and the CLI displays all keywords
that match the characters you entered.
Example 1: At a blank command line, type TAB+TAB (press the TAB key twice) to get a list of
all commands.
