Chapter 1
Dell W-Instant CLI
Dell W-Instant supports the use of Command Line Interface (CLI) for scripting purposes. You can access the Dell
W-Instant CLI through a Secure Shell (SSH).
To enable the SSH access to the Dell W-Instant CLI:
1. From the Dell W-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 Access Point)
User: admin
Password: *****
If the login is successful, the privileged command mode is enabled and a command prompt is displayed. For
example:
(Instant Access Point)#
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 Access Point)# configure terminal
The configure terminal command allows you to enter the basic configuration mode and the command prompt is
displayed as follows:
(Instant Access Point)(config)#
The Dell W-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 submode.
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:
(Instant Access Point)# commit apply
Dell Networking W-Series Instant 6.3.1.1-4.0 | CLI User Guide Dell W-Instant CLI | 10
To apply the configuration changes to the cluster, without saving the configuration, use the following command in the
privileged mode:
(Instant Access Point)# commit apply no-save
To view the changes that are yet to be applied, use the following command in the privileged mode:
(Instant Access Point)# show uncommitted-config
To revert to the earlier configuration, use the following command in the privileged mode.
(Instant Access Point)# commit revert
Example:
(Instant Access Point)(config)# rf dot11a-radio-profile
(Instant Access Point)(RF dot11a Radio Profile)# beacon-interval 200
(Instant Access Point)(RF dot11a Radio Profile)# no legacy-mode
(Instant Access Point)(RF dot11a Radio Profile)# dot11h
(Instant Access Point)(RF dot11a Radio Profile)# interference-immunity 3
(Instant Access Point)(RF dot11a Radio Profile)# csa-count 2
(Instant Access Point)(RF dot11a Radio Profile)# spectrum-monitor
(Instant Access Point)(RF dot11a Radio Profile)# end
(Instant Access Point)# 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 submode.
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 Access Point)(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 Access Point)(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 Access Point)(config) # pppoe-uplink-profile
(Instant Access Point)(pppoe_uplink_profile)# no pppoe-username

Using Sequence Sensitive Commands
The Dell W-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.

Saving Configuration Changes
The
running-config
To view the running-config of a W-IAP, use the following command:
(Instant Access Point) # 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 Access Point)# 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.
Dell Networking W-Series Instant 6.3.1.1-4.0 | CLI Reference Guide Dell W-Instant CLI | 12
holds the current W-IAP configuration, including all pending changes which are yet to be saved.

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
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:
