- NAME: The name of the Docker machine.
- ACTIVE: Indicates if the machine is currently active or not.
- DRIVER: Specifies the driver used to create the Docker machine (e.g., virtualbox, aws, etc.).
- STATE: Indicates the current state of the Docker machine (e.g., Running, Stopped).
- URL: The URL of the Docker machine's host. This is the address you will use to connect to the Docker machine.
Overall, "docker-machine ls" helps you to view the list of Docker machines that are available on your system, allowing you to manage and interact with them effectively.
