Using the Command-Line
Interface
UNIVERGE WL Control System operates a UNIVERGE WL System wireless
LAN (WLAN) consisting of WLMS software, UNIVERGE WL Controllers, and
UNIVERGE WL Access Points. UNIVERGE WL Control System has a
command-line interface (CLI) on the UNIVERGE WL Controller that you can use
to configure and manage the UNIVERGE WL Controller and its attached
UNIVERGE WL Access Points.
You configure the UNIVERGE WL Controller and the UNIVERGE WL

parameters. Use clear commands to reset parameters to their defaults. In many
cases, you can overwrite a parameter with another set command. Use show
commands to display the current configuration and monitor the status of network
operations.
The UNIVERGE WL Controller supports two connection modes:
l Administrative access mode, which enables the network administrator to
connect to the UNIVERGE WL Controller and configure the network
l Network access mode, which enables network users to connect through the
UNIVERGE WL Controller to access the network
