Now I've just added "section" :-) Thanks! I don’t know what I’d do without “include” or “begin” .. Now I’ve just added “section” :-) Thanks!

Regular expressions are crazy and can do amazing things. They're used elsewhere in IOS (like BGP AS path stuff), so it's worth checking out. Thanks, Clint.

Time to start customizing some Cisco scripts on my Unix box now to pull more specific info! Great article!!

That's part of the regular expression syntax for IOS. You can do all sorts of stuff, too. You can match only interfaces F0/1, F0/2, F0/7 with this. .... | include 0/[127] Or to find all the IP addresses in the config, do this. sh run | incl address [0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+ I've gone back and set a link to Cisco page on regular expressions, so check it out.

…. | include 0/[127]

Or to find all the IP addresses in the config, do this.

sh run | incl address [0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+

Keep it up! You can just add this tidbit to your article and not post the comment, but I just found that you can use an OR statement the other day. Just enclose the search items in parenthesis and separate them with pipes. bunker-3825-r1#show interface | i (line protocol|error|rate) GigabitEthernet0/0 is up, line protocol is up Queueing strategy: fifo 5 minute input rate 4882000 bits/sec, 1425 packets/sec 5 minute output rate 909000 bits/sec, 1188 packets/sec 2 input errors, 0 CRC, 0 frame, 2 overrun, 0 ignored 0 output errors, 0 collisions, 0 interface resets Great article! Keep it up!
