Standard listing parameters

The standard listing parameters specify whether to display the default, long, or short output for listing commands (commands that start with ls*) in the administrative CLI. You can specify these parameters in addition to the parameters available for a specific listing commands.

If you do not specify a listing parameter, the default listing displays all objects and the most vital column information, for example:
Name        User Role   Authorization
=====================================
JohnDoe     Admin       Current
MaryBlack   Backup      Not Current
JimSmith    Operator    Current
TomJones    Monitor     Not Current

The format set using these parameters remains in effect for the duration of the command.

These are the listing parameters:
