AP CLI - Command to "expand"/auto-size a property (instead of having the three dots)

fstorer — Wed, 05 Feb 2020 23:01:48 GMT

Sorry to bother again, I was wondering if there is a command in HiveOS which can "expand" the three dots at the end of a line. When I run "show interface", the last column (SSID) shows a lot of truncated names (like "BSB_STU...", "BSB_PRI...", etc.). Is there a way to "auto-size" the results and see the full name of those SSIDs?

Thank you in advance for your help!

I'm not aware of one. You can use the pipe option (|) and do something fancy. Or just a show ssid to see their full name.

From the looks of it, you only get 7 characters on the Radio, Hive and SSID columns in that output (show int). With all of those objects being able to ~32 characters in length, it is unfortunate that they are cut off.

Actually, it's more than 7 characters, the maximum allowed for those columns (Chan, Radio, Hive, SSID) is 10. And yes, it's unfortunate that they are cut off - I needed only 2 more characters for our SSIDs! 😞

I don't think the pipe option can be of any help... However, you're right, "show SSID" shows the full name. Thank you for your help!
