This section describes addresses and other identifiers that you can reference in CLI
commands.
Table 3- 3
Addresses and Identifiers
Address/Identifier
Description
IP address
For any command that requires entry of an IP address to specify a
network entity, use IPv4 network address format in the conventional
dotted decimal notation (for example, 192.0.2.1).
Netmask address
For subnet addresses, specify a subnet mask in dotted decimal
notation (for example, 255.255.255.0).
MAC address
For any command that requires entry of a device’s hardware ad-
dress, use the hexadecimal format (for example,
00:05:4e:50:14:aa).
SSID
A unique character string (sometimes referred to as a network
name), consisting of no more than 32 characters. The SSID is case-
sensitive (for example, WLAN-01).
BSSID
This entry is the unique hard-wireless MAC address of the AP. A
unique BSSID applies to each frequency— 802.11a and 802.11g—
used from the AP. Use the same format as for a MAC address.
ESSID
Typically the unique logical name of a wireless network. If the
ESSID includes spaces, enclose the name in quotation marks.
