File and Directory Management

A number of CLI commands allow you to manage files on your switch by grouping them into sub-

directories within the switch’s flash directory. For documentation purposes, we have categorized the

commands into the following three groups.

• Directory commands allow you to create, copy, move, remove, rename, and display directories.

• File commands allow you copy, secure copy, edit, rename, remove, change, and display file attributes.

• Utility commands display memory and system diagnostic information.

The following illustration represents a sample flash directory. The sample directories hold various files.

This sample flash directory is used in the explanations of the directory, file and utility CLI commands

described in the following section.

The switch may show files and directories different from the ones shown in this example.
