Instant CLI
The Instant Command Line Interface (CLI) is a text-based interface that is accessible through a Secure Shell
(SSH) session.
SSH access requires that you configure an IP address and a default gateway on the IAP and connect the IAP to
your network. This is typically performed when the Instant network on an IAP is set up.

Configuring Security
Settings for a Wired
Profile
Instant supports the trusted ports in an IAP to enable wired users on a Layer-3 mode to
connect to a switch or a router which is connected to the downlink port of the IAP. A new
parameter called
Port type
is introduced in the wired profile of the Instant UI. IAPs can
now manage incoming traffic received from the clients.
UI support for Enet-VLAN
Setting
A new system parameter
Uplink switch native VLAN
which is introduced in the
Instant UI restricts the IAP from sending out tagged frames to clients connected on the
SSID that has the same VLAN as the native VLAN of the upstream switch, to which the
IAP is connected.
IAPs can trigger a radio profile to perform frequent scanning and selection of a valid
channel in a short span of time. A new command,
ap-frequent-scan
enables the IAPs to
frequently scan signals in the radio profile.
