remote-config When the AP boots up, it fetches the specified
configuration file from the TFTP server defined in
the file remote-server command, and uses this
configuration. This must be an AP configuration file
with a .conf extension.
A partial configuration file may be used. For
instance, if you wish to use a single configuration file
for all of your APs but don't want to have the same
IP address for each AP, you may remove the ipaddr
line from the file. You can then load the file on each
AP and the local IP addresses will not change.
FORMAT:
file remote-config <config-file.conf>
Note: If you enter file remote-config ?, the help
response suggests possibilities by listing all of the
configuration files that are currently in the AP’s
flash.
remote-image When the AP boots up, it fetches the named image
file from the TFTP server defined in the file remote-
server command, and upgrades to this file before
booting. This must be an AP image file with a .bin
extension.
FORMAT:
file remote-image <image-file.bin>
Note: This will happen every time that the AP
reboots. If you only want to fetch the remote-image
one time be sure to turn off the remote image option
after the initial download.
remote-server Sets up a TFTP server to be used for automated
remote update of software image and configuration
files when rebooting.
FORMAT:
file remote-server A.B.C.D
rename Rename a file.
rm Delete a file from the flash file system.
