command switches are specific to each program and are input into a DOS terminal or comand prompt. heres an example from windows XP that's comon:
chkdsk
chkdsk /f < the info after / is the switch. in this case, fix
chkdsk /? < the ? switch tells the program you need help, which will usually list
all other switches a program can use, and some info about what they do darn thing broke my formatting, the info after < is a description and not part of the caommand
commands after the main command, usually preceded by a "-" and abbreviated that instruct the command on how to behave.
You can know all switches of every command bu just putting "/?" at the last.. Say if you want to know all switches for DIR command then just enter "DIR /?" and press enter..
To see a list of valid switches for the cd command, you can typically use the command cd /? in Windows Command Prompt, which will display help information about the command and its options. In Unix-like systems (such as Linux or macOS), cd does not have switches, as it primarily functions to change directories. However, you can check the manual by typing man cd in the terminal for more details on its usage.
Each command has its own way of telling it to bypass confirmation. Enter <command> /? for a description of the switches you can use with that command.
It depends on what information you are looking for, and the exact Unix system you are using. Take a look at the 'man ps' command on your system to find out the switches that give the information you are most interested in looking at.
To check whether two switches are connected, you can use the ping command from the command line interface (CLI) of a device connected to one of the switches. By pinging the IP address of the other switch, you can determine if there is connectivity between them. If the ping is successful, the switches are connected; if it fails, there may be a connectivity issue. Additionally, using commands like show cdp neighbors (for Cisco devices) can provide information about directly connected devices.
CLI stands for Command line interface. It is where we configure our routers or switches.
Time Switch, Command Switch, Electronic Circuit, Victim Operated
Command set and command switches. Both are based on the UNIX operating system, so they have the core of the operating system in common.
You can find all of the switches and options available to net send by doing: net send /?
/ = forward slash \ = back slash Forward slashes are generally used as 'switches' for commands, e.g. dir /w/p to provide additional functionality. If you type the command followed by /? it'll list the switches available. dir /?
The 'ls' command has many switches and options, especially depending on which version of Unix or Linux you are talking about. The best way to find out is to try either: man ls info ls ls --help depending on the system.
