Displaying Lines Starting with a Specified String
The following command filters the output of the show who command so it displays output starting with the first line
that contains the word “SSH”. This command can be used to display information about SSH connections to the
Foundry device.
Syntax: <show-command> | begin <regular-expression>
Searching and Filtering Output at the --More-- Prompt
The --More-- prompt displays when output extends beyond a single page. From this prompt, you can press the
Space bar to display the next page, the Return or Enter key to display the next line, or Ctrl-C or Q to cancel the
display. In addition, you can search and filter output from this prompt.
At the --More-- prompt, you can press the forward slash key ( / ) and then enter a search string. The Foundry
device displays output starting from the first line that contains the search string, similar to the begin option for
show commands. For example:
To display lines containing only a specified search string (similar to the include option for show commands) press
the plus sign key ( + ) at the --More-- prompt and then enter the search string.
