> http://<openhab-host>:8080/CMD?<item>=<state> This URL is not working on OH2. Is there something similar? Thanks

The CMD servlet and REST API are different. The CMD servlet lets you send GET requests of the form <itemName>=<command> in order to send commands to items. Under OH2, have you tried http://host:port/classicui/CMD?itemName=command
