Var Description and Values

The FortiAP CLI controls radio and network operation through variables manipulated with the cfg command. The cfg command can list, add, change, commit, remove, export, and reset variables. Variables control aspects like the IP address, discovery of the wireless controller, radio settings, and more. Diagnose commands provide information on system status, scanning results, and troubleshooting functions.

The FortiAP CLI controls radio and network operation through the use of variables manipulated with the

cfg command.

The cfg command include the following:


cfg -s List variables.
cfg -a var=value Add or change a variable value.
cfg -c Commit the change to flash.
cfg -x Reset settings to factory defaults.
cfg -r var Remove variable.
cfg -e Export variables.
cfg -h Display help for all commands.

Var Description and Values


BAUD_RATE Console data rate: 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, or 115200 baud.
WTP_NAME By default, the name is the FortiAP serial number.
FIRMWARE_UPGRADE Default is 0.
LOGIN_PASSWD Administrator login password. By default this is empty.
ADMIN_TIMEOUT Administrative timeout in minutes. Applies to Telnet and web-based manager sessions.
Default is 5 minutes.

ADDR_MODE How the FortiAP unit obtains its IP address and netmask.
DHCP - Fortigate interface assigns address
STATIC - Specify in AP_IPADDR and AP_NETMASK.
Default is DHCP.

AP_IPADDR These variables set the FortiAP unit IP address, netmask and default gateway when ADDR_MODE is STATIC.
AP_NETMASK Default 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.0, gateway 192.168.1.1.
IPGW
AP_MODE FortiAP operating mode.
0 - Thin AP (default)
2 - Unmanaged Site Survey mode. See SURVEY variables.
DNS_SERVER DNS Server for clients. If ADDR_MODE is DHCP the DNS server is automatically assigned.
STP_MODE Spanning Tree Protocol. 0 is off. 1 is on.
AP_MGMT_VLAN_ID Non-zero value applies VLAN ID for unit management. Default: 0.
TELNET_ALLOW By default (value 0), Telnet access is closed when the FortiAP unit is authorized. Set value to 1 to keep Telnet
always available.
HTTP_ALLOW Access to FortiAP web-based manager 1 - Yes (default), 0 - No.
AC_DISCOVERY_TYPE 1 - Static. Specify WiFi Controllers
2 - DHCP
3 - DNS
5 - Broadcast
6 - Multicast
0 - Cycle through all of the discovery types until successful.
AC_IPADDR_1 WiFi Controller IP addresses for static discovery.
AC_IPADDR_2
AC_IPADDR_3
AC_HOSTNAME_1 WiFi Controller host names for static discovery.
AC_HOSTNAME_2
AC_HOSTNAME_3
AC_DISCOVERY_MC_ADDR Multicast address for controller discovery. Default 224.0.1.140.
AC_DISCOVERY_DHCP_OPTION_CODE Option code for DHCP server.
138 (default)
AC_CTL_PORT WiFi Controller control (CAPWAP) port. Default 5246.
AC_DATA_CHAN_SEC Data channel security.
0 - Clear text
1 - DTLS (encrypted)
2 - Accept either DTLS or clear text (default)
MESH_AP_TYPE Type of communication for backhaul to controller:
0 - Ethernet (default)
1 - WiFi mesh
2 - Ethernet with mesh backup support
MESH_AP_SSID SSID for mesh backhaul. Default: fortinet.mesh.root
MESH_AP_BSSID WiFi MAC address
MESH_AP_PASSWD Pre-shared key for mesh backhaul.
MESH_ETH_BRIDGE 1 - Bridge mesh WiFi SSID to FortiAP Ethernet port. This can be used for point-to-point bridge configuration. This
is available only when MESH_AP_TYPE =1.
0 - No WiFi-Ethernet bridge (default).
MESH_MAX_HOPS Maximum number of times packets can be passed from node to node on the mesh. Default is 4.
Examples:

cfg -a ADDR_MODE="STATIC" > set local AP address mode to static


cfg -a AP_IPADDR="192.168.1.2" > set local IP
cfg -a AP_NETMASK="255.255.255.0" > set Network Mask
cfg -a IPGW="192.168.1.1" > set gateway IP to reach the AC
cfg -a AC_IPADDR_1="192.168.1.1" > AC static IP
cfg -a AC_DISCOVERY_TYPE="1" > set discovery type to 1 = static
