1.5.1 Target
Each basic command functions to a specified target. The target points the managed element by address path
much like the path to a file in a file system.
Both absolute path, which is started from "/", and relative path are available for pointing the target.
Specifically, "." and ".." are supported. The "." means the current default target and the ".." means the parent
target.
Specifying the target, enter <target> following to each basic command. If it is not specified, commands
functions to a current default target. The current default target can be changed by the cd command. The
current default target is "/"(root) when the command line interface session is started.
