General Information
- serial port is 9600 baud
- to turn something off, put a
no
in front of the configuration - to see current configuration
show configuration
- you can cut/past multiple commands/settings as once
- see current virtual lans:
show vlan
- fastethernet abbreviation is
fa
- change hostname:
hostname <HOSTNAME>
ssh
ing in:ssh -c 3des-cbc -oKexAlgorithms=+diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 <USERNAME>@<IP-ADDESS>
- set the channel only with physical Radio0 and not the “virtual” radios. All the SSIDs will always be on the same channel
- vlans appear to be intended to be used only with Cisco switchports and perhaps when they are in trunk mode
- it appears you can get around this by having the access point forward DHCPDISCOVER broadcast packets directly to our DHCP server using the
ip helper-address
command.
router#conf t router(config)#int fa0.2 router(config-subif)#ip helper-address address_of_server router(config-subif)#end
- 8266 with Arduino Wi-Fi library seem happiest with
encryption mode ciphers aes-ccm

note: see comment about vlans and switchports above. That configuration for the fastethernet may be required
