Console Connection
Using the Command Line
Interface
When accessing the management interface for the over a direct connection to the
console port, or via a Telnet connection, the access point can be managed by
entering command keywords and parameters at the prompt. Using the access
point's command-line interface (CLI) is very similar to entering commands on a
UNIX system.
To access the AP through the console port, first set up a console connection to the
AP. See
"Console Port Connection" on page 19
At the console prompt, enter the user name and password. (The default user name
is "admin" with no default password.) After the password is entered, the CLI displays
the "SMC#" prompt.
Example
(none) login: admin
Password:
Jan
1 11:33:13 login[1918]: root login on 'ttyS0'
SMC#
Note:
Command examples shown later in this chapter abbreviate the console
prompt to "AP" for simplicity.
Enter the necessary commands to complete your desired tasks.
When finished, exit the session with the "exit" command.
