How to work with files
The AlliedWare Plus OS lets you create directory trees for file storage. This section shows:
 "How to list files" on page 31—listing files and seeing how much free space you have
 "How to navigate through the file system" on page 33—identifying the current directory,
changing directories, and creating and deleting directories
 "How to copy files" on page 35—copying within Flash memory, to and from NVS and SD
card, and to and from a TFTP server
 "How to use the editor" on page 37
How to list files
To list files, enter Privileged Exec mode and enter the command:
awplus#dir

The dir command does not list all files—it hides system files and directories because users
generally do not need to create or edit them. To list all files including system files, enter
Privileged Exec mode and enter the command:
awplus#dir all
The output looks like this:
The hidden files and directories begin with a dot.
