CLI Command Types

This guide divides CLI Commands into two categories: Operational and Parameter Controls.

Operational CLI Commands

any) press the Enter key to execute the Command Line.
Operational commands include:

command)

done, exit, quit: Terminates the CLI session

download: Uses a TFTP server to download “image” files, “config” files, “bootloader upgrade” files, “SSL certificates”, “SSL private keys”,
“SSH public keys”, “SSH private keys”, or “CLI Batch Files” to the Access Point

help: Displays general CLI help information or command help information, such as command usage and syntax

history: Remembers commands to help avoid re-entering complex statements

passwd: Sets the Access Point’s CLI password
