Displaying the Contents of a tar File

To display the contents of a tar file on the screen, use this privileged EXEC command:

archive tar /table source-url

For source-url, specify the source URL alias for the local or network file system. These options are

supported:

•For the local Flash file system, the syntax is

flash:

•For the File Transfer Protocol (FTP), the syntax is

ftp:[[//username[:password]@location]/directory]/tar-filename.tar

•For the Remote Copy Protocol (RCP), the syntax i s

rcp:[[//username@location]/directory]/tar-filename.tar

•For the Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP), the syntax is

tftp:[[//location]/directory]/tar-filename.tar

The tar-filename.tar is the tar file to display.

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.
