root Commands

The root context of the CLI displays available commands relating to the Wireless Appliance‘s configuration, as well as available sub-contexts.

All CLI commands cache changes. For this reason, sometimes when you make a change in a particular context, the change may not be visible immediately. If this happens, you must exit and re-enter the context in order to ensure that the database is synchronized with the latest change.

This chapter documents root context commands not associated with features documented in other chapters. See Root Commands Documented in Feature Chapters for a listing and description of root commands documented outside of this chapter.

The following commands are available in the root context:
