Use the 

 command to navigate within the file directory structure. The 

 command allows you to move 

“up” or “down” the directory tree. To go down, you must specify a directory located in your current direc-
tory. The following command example presumes your current directory is the /flash file directory as 
shown in the directory on 

 and that you want to move down the directory tree to the certified 

directory.

->pwd

/flash

->cd certified

->

To verify that your current directory has changed to /flash/certified, use the 

 command and the 

following will be displayed:

->pwd

/flash/certified

To move “up” the directory tree, use the 

 command. Enter cd.. (cd dot dot) without specifying a direc-

tory name and your current directory will move up one directory level. If you enter 

 without the dots, 

your current directory will move to the top of the tree. The following example shows the 

 command 

used where the current directory is /flash/certified.

->pwd

/flash/certified

-> cd

->

To verify that your current directory has moved up the directory tree, use the 

 command to display 

your location. The display shows you have moved up one level from the /flash/certified directory and that 
your current directory is /flash.

-> pwd

/flash

If you use the 

 command while you are at the top of the directory tree, the 

 command will have no 

effect on the location of your login. In other words, if you use 

 while your current directory is /flash, 

your current directory will remain /flash after you execute the 

 command.
