Command Line Interface Reference
The AP-5131 Command Line Interface (CLI) is accessed through the serial port or a Telnet session. The
AP-5131 CLI follows the same conventions as the Web-based user interface. The CLI does, however,
provide an “escape sequence” to provide diagnostics for problem identification and resolution.
The AP-5131 CLI treats the following as invalid characters:
| " & , \ ' < >
In order to avoid problems when using the AP-5131 CLI, these characters should be avoided.

Attach the other end of the null modem serial cable to the serial port of a PC running
HyperTerminal or a similar emulation program.
