Basic Commands

This section describes basic commands available in the command line interface. These basic commands
manage the system by using the concept of command (verb) and target (Managed Element) proposed by DMTF
(Distributed Management Task Force).
Each basic command functions to a specified target. The target points the managed element by address path
much like the path to a file in a file system. Both absolute path, which is started from "/", and relative path are
available for pointing the target. Specifically, "." and ".." are supported. The "." means the current default target
and the ".." means the parent target.
Each basic command functions to the current default target when the <target> is not specified in the basic
command. The current default target can be changed by the cd command. The current default target is
"/admin1" when the command line interface session is started (at login).
The current default target is displayed at the left side of the command prompt ("->").
Help string, command syntax, of each command appears when "-h" option is specified as the <options> of the
command. The argument placed between "[" and "]" is omissible.
