Bootloader CLI and Scan Tool
The Bootloader CLI provides you the ability to configure the initial setup parameters as well as download a software image to
the device.
: For AP-8100, you can download the software image using ScanTool, as the Bootloader CLI mode (only accessible
through the serial interface) is not applicable to AP-8100.
This interface is only accessible through the serial interface, and used when:
•
The device does not contain a software image
•
An existing image is corrupted
•
An automatic (default) download of image over TFTP has failed
The Bootloader CLI supports the following commands.
•
factory_reset: Restores the factory settings
•
help: Prints online help
•
reboot: Reboots the device
•
set: Sets the parameters
•
show: Shows the parameters
