      In the prerequisites section it doesn't state the requirement EAP is running in standalone mode.

      From the CLI help text:

      $ ee-dist/target/jboss-eap-8.0/bin/jboss-cli.sh 

You are disconnected at the moment. Type 'connect' to connect to the server or 'help' for the list of supported commands.

SYNOPSIS

    security  <action>

 
DESCRIPTION

    The main command to configure security. This command exposes a set of
    actions to configure SSL. This command is only available if CLI is
    connected to a managed process (or embedded server) that is running in
    standalone mode and supports elytron.

    ....

      (Note that in the EAP 8 context the 'supports elytron' part is not so useful as it would be a very weird to not be using the elytron subsystem but wanting to use this CLI command. So I don' think that needs mentioning in any doc).

      Note this specific docs section is what was pointed out as being unclear. If there are other sections discussing the CLI 'security' command, the same applies.
