ZD - Run CLI commands from the controller to multiple APs at the same time.

[Orlando_Elias]

Maximize efficiency by running CLI commands on multiple APs simultaneously. RUCKUS ZD's 'remote_ap_cli' command in debug mode empowers you to take command effortlessly:

1. Access debug mode:

ruckus> ena
ruckus# debug
You have all rights in this mode.
ruckus(debug)# remote_ap_cli

usage: remote_ap_cli [-q] {-a ap_mac | -A } "cmd arg1 arg2 .."
excute AP CLI command in remote AP
-A ; all connected AP's
-q ; do not show result
cmd ; Ruckus CLI, e.g. "get station wlan0 list"
remote_ap_cli
ruckus(debug)#

For instance, retrieve uptime for all APs:

ruckus(debug)# remote_ap_cli -A "get uptime"

2. Enclose the standard AP CLI command you would typically use directly on the AP's CLI within double quotes. For instance, in this case, use 'get uptime'.

Here is an example from the Command Reference:
