You can also limit the display of the files by specifying an optional list of files or directories after the tar
file; then only these files are displayed. If none are specified, all files and directories are displayed.
This example shows how to display the contents of the c3550-i5q3l2-mz.121-6.EA1.tar file that is in
Flash memory:
ap# archive tar /table flash:c3550-i5q3l2-mz.121-6.EA1.tar
info (219 bytes)
c3550-i5q3l2-mz.121-6.EA1/ (directory)
c3550-i5q3l2-mz.121-6.EA1/html/ (directory)
c3550-i5q3l2-mz.121-6.EA1/html/foo.html (0 bytes)
c3550-i5q3l2-mz.121-6.EA1/c3550-i5q3l2-mz.121-6.EA1.bin (610856 bytes)
c3550-i5q3l2-mz.121-6.EA1/info (219 bytes)
info.ver (219 bytes)
This example shows how to display only the c3550-i5q3l2-mz.121-6.EA1/html directory and its contents:
ap# archive tar /table flash:c3550-tv0-m.tar c3550-i5q3l2-mz.121-6.EA1/html
c3550-i5q3l2-mz.121-6.EA1/html/ (directory)
