Command Prompts
By default, the UNIVERGE WL Control System CLI provides the following
prompt for restricted users. The mm portion shows “WL” and the nnnnnn portion
shows the last 6 digits of the UNIVERGE WL Controller’s media access control
(MAC) address.
PROMPT-mmnnnnnn>
After you become enabled as an administrative user by typing enable and
supplying a suitable password, UNIVERGE WL Control System displays the
following prompt:
PROMPT-mmnnnnnn#
For ease of presentation, this manual shows the restricted and enabled prompts as
follows:
PROMPT>
PROMPT#
For information about changing the CLI prompt on a UNIVERGE WL Controller,
see set prompt on page 31.
Note. When the UNIVERGE WL Controller is in factory default state or after CLI
prompt changing, "*" appears at the head of the prompt until the prompt setting is
saved.
