1.1.3 Command Line Interface
The Command Line Interface (CLI) is a text-based configuration utility that supports a set of keyboard commands and
parameters to configure, manage and monitor the device. The commands can be issued from the keyboard for real-time
control, or from scripts that automate the configuration.
Access the CLI through the Ethernet interface by using a Telnet of SSH connection.
To login to the device:
•
Verify that the computer has IP connectivity with the device (Ping 169.254.128.132),
•
Use Telnet or SSH client (Telnet 169.254.128.132),
•
Enter the username and password (By default, the username is admin for Administrator User, monitor for Monitor
User and the password is public for both users).
To view the list of available commands, type Question Mark (?) at the command prompt.
For details on how to configure the device through CLI, refer to Reference Guide available on Proxim website at
http://support.proxim.com.
: For devices with no serial port, the user can initialize, configure, manage and monitor the device through CLI
commands via Telnet/SSH.
1.1.4 Simple Network Management Protocol
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an application-layer protocol designed to facilitate the exchange of
management information between the network devices. It is a part of the TCP/IP protocol and is most commonly used by the
Network Administrators.
SNMP MIB (Management Information Base) is a collection of various network objects that you can access using a
network-management protocol such as SNMP. The supported MIB files are available on Proxim website at
http://support.proxim.com. You need to compile one or more of the MIBs into their SNMP program's database before you can
manage the device by SNMP. You can open the MIB with any text editor, such as Microsoft Word, Notepad, or WordPad.
To access SNMP agent through MIB browser (for example NuDesign Pro 8.2) by using SNMP versions as V1, V2c, or V3, do the
following:
•
Select SNMP version.
•
Provide device's IP address in the Dest IP Address box. The default IP address of the device is 169.254.128.132.
•
Provide the Dest UDP Port. By default, the port number is set to 161.
•
Provide the Read Community Password. By default, the password is public.
•
Provide the Read/Write Community Password. By default, the password is public.
For details on how to configure the device through SNMP Interface, refer to Reference Guide available on Proxim website at
