Usage 
Information
Without the page or stack-unit option, the command output is continuous. Use Ctrl-z to 
interrupt the command output.
The save option works with other filtering commands. This allows you to save specific 
information of a 
show command. The save entry must always be the last option. For example: 
FTOS#show tech-support |grep regular-expression |except 
regular-expression | find regular-expression | save flash://
result
This display output is an accumulation of the same information that is displayed when you 
execute one of the following show commands:
• show cam
• show clock
• show environment
• show file
• show interfaces
• show inventory
• show ip protocols
• show ip route summary
• show processes cpu
•
show processes memory
• show redundancy
• show running-conf
• show version
