Understanding
Interfaces as
Presented in the
CLI
The following summary of interface names is provided to help clarify the
related CLI commands and output results. These names are not shown in
the web UI, but are used throughout the CLI. You get and set many
configuration values on the access point by referring to interfaces. In order
to configure the access point through the CLI, you need to understand
which interfaces are available on the access point, what role they play
(corresponding setting on the web UI), and how to refer to them.
