• Download vs. Upload - Downloads transfer files to the Access Point. Uploads transfer files from the Access Point. The
TFTP server performs file transfers in both directions.

related parameters. Groups can also contain Tables. All items for a given Group can be displayed with a show
<Group> CLI Command.
• Image File - The Access Point software executed from RAM. To update an Access Point you typically download a new
Image File. This file is often referred to as the “AP Image”.

Point must have a unique IP Address and the Wireless interface must be assigned an SSID. Change parameters with
the CLI set Command, and view them with the CLI show Command.

SNMP Table. All items for a given Table can be displayed with a show <Table> CLI Command.
