This chapter describes the commands available within a device's Command Line Interface (CLI) structure. CLI is available for wireless controller, access points (APs), and service platforms.
Access the CLI by using:
A terminal emulation program running on a computer connected to the serial port on the device (AP, wireless controller, and service platform).
A Telnet session through Secure Shell (SSH) over a network.
If connecting through the serial port, use the following settings to configure your terminal emulator:
| Bits Per Second |
19200 For AP8533, AP8432, AP8163, AP7622, AP7632, AP7622, AP7612, AP7602, AP7562, AP7532, AP7522, AP7502 model access points, set this value to 115200. |
| Data Bits | 8 |
| Parity | None |
| Stop Bit | 1 |
| Flow Control | None |
When a CLI session is established, complete the following (user input is in bold):
login as: <username> administrator's login password: <password>
Use the following credentials when logging into a device for the first time:
| User Name | admin |
| Password | admin123 |
When logging into the CLI for the first time, you are prompted to change the password. Reset the password and use it for subsequent logins.
Examples used in this reference guide are generic to the each supported wireless controller, service platform, and AP model. Commands that are not common, are identified using the notation "Supported in the following platforms." For an example, see below:

The above example indicates the command is only available for a NX5500 model service platform.
