What point meaning in the permission string lrwxrwxrwx.? [duplicate]

Writer Matthew Martinez

When I run an ls -la /, some files/folders it gives output like:

-rw-r-----. 1 root root 0 Jan 18 2020 1

drwxrwx---. 3 root root 4096 May 24 2016 ade

lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 7 Feb 27 2018 bin -> usr/bin

So, what is the meaning the point (.) at the end in the permisions?

-rw-r-----.

drwxrwx---.

lrwxrwxrwx.

I thank in advance who can help me.
