Defining the QoS Policy used for a Wireless Interface SSID
The QoS Policy object configures the QoS policy to be used per wireless interface SSID. This object is part of the
Wireless Interface SSID Table; the CLI command for this table is “wifssidtbl.”
* A QoS Policy number needs to be specified in the SSID table. This depends on the QoS policies configured by the user. Once the user has
configured QoS policies, the user should specify the policy to be used for that SSID.
CLI Batch File
A CLI Batch file is a user-editable file that lists a series of CLI set commands, that can be uploaded to the Access Point to
change its configuration. The Access Point executes the CLI commands specified in the CLI Batch file after upload and
the configuration gets changed accordingly. A CLI Batch file can also be used for Auto Configuration.
The CLI Batch file does not replace the existing LTV format configuration file, which continues to define the configuration
of the AP.
The CLI Batch file contains a list of CLI commands that the AP will execute. The AP performs the commands in the file
immediately after the file is uploaded to the AP manually or during Auto Configuration. The AP parses the file and
executes the CLI commands. Commands that do not require a reboot take effect immediately, while commands that
require a reboot (typically commands affecting a wireless interface) will take effect after reboot.
Auto Configuration and the CLI Batch File
The Auto Configuration feature allows download of the LTV format configuration file or the CLI Batch file. The AP detects
whether the file uploaded is LTV format or a CLI Batch file. If the AP detects a CLI Batch file (a file with extension .cli), the
AP executes the file immediately.
The AP will reboot after executing the CLI Batch file. Auto Configuration will not result in repeated reboots if the CLI Batch
file contains rebootable parameters.
CLI Batch File Format and Syntax
The CLI Batch file must be named with a .cli extension to be recognized by the AP. The maximum file size allowed is 100
Kbytes, and files with larger sizes cannot be uploaded to the AP. The CLI commands supported in the CLI Batch File are
a subset of the legal AP CLI commands.
The follow commands are supported:
• Set commands
• Reboot command (the reboot command ignores the argument (time))
Each command must be separated by a new line.
NOTE: The following commands are not supported: Show command, Debug command, Undebug command, Upload
command, Download command, Passwd command, Kill command, and the Exit, Quit, and Done commands.
