Getting Started with the CLI
The root command prompt (Root Command Prompt) is the first prompt you see
after logging in to the CLI. If you are at a level other than the root command
prompt you can return to this prompt at any time by using the exit command to
step back through each command prompt level. The root command prompt you
see in the CLI window is determined by the host name you assigned to your AP.
The prompt Xirrus_Wi-Fi_AP is displayed throughout this document simply as a
sample host name assigned to the AP. To terminate your session at any time, use
the quit command.
