Section 5 Basic Configuration via CLI
It is important for users to be familiar with the CLI interface as well as the Browser Interface. This section covers how to utilize the
radio’s CLI interface to establish a working wireless link. Much of the information presented here is similar to the information
presented in Section 4.
In this section, the most common settings are discussed using the CLI. Topics include:
?? Access Point Basic Settings
?? Subscriber Unit Basic Settings
?? Subscriber Unit Database Settings
A comprehensive treatment of radio settings is found in the appendix on the Command Set Reference.
See “Getting Started” section for description of how to access the radio via Telnet or Serial Interface
Access Point Basic Settings
After logging onto an AP or SU , it is good practice to type the sysinfo command to see the radio’s basic system information. Example

Many of these parameters can be changed by the user. A description of each of these changeable parameters, along with the related
command is shown in the table below.

Important! When changing settings, it is usually necessary to type the save ss command in order to update the radio’s flash
memory. If you do not type the save ss command, the setting will be lost the next time the radio is rebooted. The command
save ss is equivilent to updateflash systemsetting.
