Filtering output information
Introduction
You can use regular expressions in display commands to filter output information.
The following methods are available for filtering output information:
•
Input the begin, exclude, or include keyword plus a regular expression in the display command to
filter the output information.
•
When the system displays the output information in multiple screens, use /, - or + plus a regular
expression to filter subsequent output information. / equals the keyword begin, - equals the
keyword exclude, and + equals the keyword include.
The following definitions apply to the begin, exclude, and include keywords:
•
begin: Displays the first line that matches the specified regular expression and all lines that follow.
•
exclude: Displays all lines that do not match the specified regular expression.
•
include: Displays all lines that match the specified regular expression.
A regular expression is a case sensitive string of 1 to 256 characters. It supports the following special
characters.
Character Meaning Remarks
^string
Starting sign. string appears only at
the beginning of a line.
For example, regular expression “^user” only
matches a string beginning with “user”, not
“Auser”.
string$
Ending sign. string appears only at
the end of a line.
For example, regular expression "user$” only
matches a string ending with “user”, not “userA”.
