# The Network Terminal Application

The Network Terminal example provide a command-line interface that enables running basic operations. The following menu should appear on the terminal.

> > Fig. 9 Terminal Network Example

> Typing `help` will show this menu.
> Typing the name of a command will show the required parameters.
> The role (AP or station) should be started before any other command, e.g. with `wlan_sta_role_up` or `wlan_ap_role_up`.
> Starting an access-point will enable mobile devices to connect to the CC33XX.
> Starting a station role will enable commands such as `wlan_scan` and `wlan_connect`.
> Once connected to an access point, you can use `send` and ``receive` (over LWIP - the reference network stack).
> For more details on the application, check the example’s `README` file.
