When working with the command line, displaying tables with several columns is often confusing because the standard line length is 80 characters. Useful for large tables, you can go directly to the any row by entering a row index when invoking the cd command. In this way, the commands dir and ls display the content of the line in a three-column table:
- Left column: Property
- Middle column: Type
- Right column: Value
Anmerkung: If the specified row does not exist an error message is displayed. If another working directory has been specified, then a column parameter is ignored.
In this three-column view, you can use the shell command set <property> <value> directly to write a new value into the corresponding field.
Anmerkung: The set command also processes complete paths. Enter the table entries that begin with the characters "..", "/" and "\" between quotes.
- The command cd Status/LAN/Interfaces takes you to the overview of the LAN interfaces.
- The ls command lists all the information about the interfaces in a table:
Ifc Queue-Packets Link-Active ----------------------------------------------- LAN-1 0 Yes LAN-2 0 No LAN-3 0 No LAN-4 0 No - With the command cd lan-4 you move to the corresponding table row.
- The ls command lists the content of this row only:
Ifc INFO: LAN-4 Queue-Packets INFO: 0 Link-Active INFO: No
