Chapter 2
Instant CLI
Instant supports the use of Command Line Interface (CLI) for scripting purposes. You can access the Instant
CLI through a Secure Shell (SSH).
To enable the SSH access to the Instant CLI:
1. From the Instant UI, navigate to System > Show advanced options.
2. Select Enabled from the Terminal access drop-down list.
3. Click OK.
Connecting to a CLI Session
On connecting to a CLI session, the system displays its host name followed by the login prompt. Use the
administrator credentials to start a CLI session. For example:
(Instant AP)
User: admin
Password: *****
If the login is successful, the privileged command mode is enabled and a command prompt is displayed. For
example:
(Instant AP)#
The privileged mode provides access to show, clear, ping, traceroute, and commit commands. The
configuration commands are available in the configuration (config) mode. To move from privileged mode to
the configuration mode, enter the following command at the command prompt:
(Instant AP)# configure terminal
The configure terminal command allows you to enter the basic configuration mode and the command prompt
is displayed as follows:
(Instant AP)(config)#
The Instant CLI allows CLI scripting in several other sub-command modes to allow the users to configure
individual interfaces, SSIDs, access rules, and security settings.
You can use the question mark (?) to view the commands available in a privileged mode, configuration mode, or
sub-mode.
Although automatic completion is supported for some commands such as configure terminal, the
complete exit and end commands must be entered at command prompt for successful execution.
Applying Configuration Changes
Each command processed by the Virtual Controller is applied on all the slave W-IAPs in a cluster. When you
make configuration changes on a master W-IAP in the CLI, all associated W-IAPs in the cluster inherit these
changes and subsequently update their configurations. The changes configured in a CLI session are saved in
the CLI context.
The CLI does not support the configuration data exceeding the 4K buffer size in a CLI session: therefore, it is
recommended that you configure fewer changes at a time and apply the changes at regular intervals.
To apply and save the configuration changes at regular intervals, use the following command in the privileged
mode:
Dell Networking W-Series Instant 6.4.2.0-4.1.1 | CLI Reference Guide Instant CLI | 7
(Instant AP)# commit apply
To apply the configuration changes to the cluster, without saving the configuration, use the following
command in the privileged mode:
(Instant AP)# commit apply no-save
To view the changes that are yet to be applied, use the following command in the privileged mode:
(Instant AP)# show uncommitted-config
To revert to the earlier configuration, use the following command in the privileged mode.
(Instant AP)# commit revert
Example:
(Instant AP)(config)# rf dot11a-radio-profile
(Instant AP)(RF dot11a Radio Profile)# beacon-interval 200
(Instant AP)(RF dot11a Radio Profile)# no legacy-mode
(Instant AP)(RF dot11a Radio Profile)# dot11h
(Instant AP)(RF dot11a Radio Profile)# interference-immunity 3
(Instant AP)(RF dot11a Radio Profile)# csa-count 2
(Instant AP)(RF dot11a Radio Profile)# spectrum-monitor
(Instant AP)(RF dot11a Radio Profile)# end
(Instant AP)# show uncommitted-config
rf dot11a-radio-profile
no legacy-mode
beacon-interval 200
no dot11h
interference-immunity 3
csa-count 1
no spectrum-monitor
Instant Access Point# commit apply
Configuration Sub-modes
Some commands in configuration mode allow you to enter into a sub-mode to configure the commands
specific to that mode. When you are in a configuration sub-mode, the command prompt changes to indicate
the current sub-mode.
You can exit a sub-command mode and return to the basic configuration mode or the privileged Exec (enable)
mode at any time by executing the exit or end command.
Deleting Configuration Settings
Use the no command to delete or negate previously-entered configurations or parameters.
l To view a list of no commands, type no at the prompt in the relevant mode or sub-mode followed by the
question mark. For example:
(Instant AP)(config) # no?
l To delete a configuration, use the no form of a configuration command. For example, the following
command removes a configured user role:
(Instant AP)(config) # no user <username>
l To negate a specific configured parameter, use the no parameter within the command. For example, the
following command deletes the PPPoE user configuration settings:
(Instant AP)(config) # pppoe-uplink-profile
(Instant AP)(pppoe_uplink_profile)# no pppoe-username
8 | Instant CLI Dell Networking W-Series Instant 6.4.2.0-4.1.1 | CLI Reference Guide
Using Sequence Sensitive Commands
The Instant CLI does not support positioning or precedence of sequence-sensitive commands. Therefore, it is
recommended that you remove the existing configuration before adding or modifying the configuration
details for sequence-sensitive commands. You can either delete an existing profile or remove a specific
configuration by using the no… commands.
The following table lists the sequence-sensitive commands and the corresponding no command to remove the
configuration.

no set-vlan
Saving Configuration Changes
The running-config holds the current W-IAP configuration, including all pending changes which are yet to be
saved. To view the running-config of a W-IAP, use the following command:
(Instant AP) # show running-config
When you make configuration changes through the CLI, the changes affect the current running configuration
only. To save your configuration changes, use the following command in the privileged Exec mode:
(Instant AP)# write memory
Commands that Reset the W-IAP
If you use the CLI to modify a currently provisioned radio profile, the changes take place immediately. A reboot
of the W-IAP is not required to apply the configuration changes. Certain commands, however, automatically
force W-IAP to reboot. Verify the current network loads and conditions before executing the commands that
enforce a reboot of the W-IAP, as they may cause a momentary disruption in service as the unit resets.
The reload command resets a W-IAP.

Specifying Addresses and Identifiers in Commands
This section describes addresses and other identifiers that you can reference in CLI commands.
Table 6: Addresses and Identifiers
Address/Identifier Description
IP address For any command that requires entry of an IP address to specify a network
entity, use IPv4 network address format in the conventional dotted decimal
notation (for example, 192.0.2.1).
Netmask address For subnet addresses, specify a subnet mask in dotted decimal notation (for
example, 255.255.255.0).
Media Access Control
(MAC) address
Service Set Identifier
(SSID)
Basic Service Set
Identifier (BSSID)
Extended Service Set
Identifier (ESSID)
For any command that requires entry of a device’s hardware address, use the
hexadecimal format (for example, 00:05:4e:50:14:aa).
A unique character string (sometimes referred to as a network name),
consisting of no more than 32 characters. The SSID is case-sensitive (for
example, WLAN-01).
This entry is the unique hard-wireless MAC address of the AP. A unique BSSID
applies to each frequency— 802.11a and 802.11g—used from the AP. Use the
same format as for a MAC address.
Typically the unique logical name of a wireless network. If the ESSID includes
spaces, enclose the name in quotation marks.

Configures the antenna gain. You can configure a gain value
in dBi for the following types of antenna:
l Dipole/Omni
l Panel
l Sector
Diploe/Omni - 6
Panel -14
Sector - 14
Usage Guidelines
If your W-IAP has external antenna connectors, you need to configure the transmit power of the system. The
configuration must ensure that the system’s Equivalent Isotropically Radiated Power (EIRP) is in compliance
with the limit specified by the regulatory authority of the country in which the W-IAP is deployed. You can also
measure or calculate additional attenuation between the device and antenna before configuring the antenna
gain. To know if your AP device supports external antenna connectors, see the Install Guide that is shipped
along with the AP device.
EIRP and Antenna Gain
The following formula can be used to calculate the EIRP limit related RF power based on selected antennas
(antenna gain) and feeder (Coaxial Cable loss):
EIRP = Tx RF Power (dBm)+GA (dB) - FL (dB)
The following table describes this formula:
Table 7: Formula Variable Definitions
Formula Element Description
EIRP Limit specific for each country of deployment
Tx RF Power RF power measured at RF connector of the unit
GA Antenna gain
FL Feeder loss
For information on antenna gain recommended by the manufacturer, see dell.com/support.
Example
The following example configures external antenna connectors for the W-IAP with the 5 GHz radio band.
