WLAN AP: Defining AP-Name within CLI Prompt

WLAN AP: Defining AP-Name within CLI Prompt

Because i am working for deeper troubleshooting directly on AP CLI, I am looking for a way how to see/set the AP-Name within CLI Prompt.

(Working with IdentiFi WLAN)

Here my solution (with help of my collegue):
PS1="'grep -i apname /home/config/current.cfg | cut -b 13-' # "To make it persistant after reboot (but maybe not after update):
echo 'PS1="'grep -i apname /home/config/current.cfg | cut -b 13-' # "' >> ~/.profile

Hopefully anybody else needs this too!

I just tested this with a 3825i and it worked just dandy.

I test with an AP3715e - but i am sure this will work with all IdentiFi APs.
