Command History
The Dell Networking OS maintains a history of previously-entered commands for each mode. For example:
•
When you are in EXEC mode, the UP and DOWN arrow keys display the previously-entered EXEC mode
commands.
•
When you are in CONFIGURATION mode, the UP or DOWN arrows keys recall the previously-entered
CONFIGURATION mode commands.
Filtering show Command Outputs
Filter the output of a show command to display specific information by adding | [except | find | grep
| no-more | save] specified_text after the command.
The variable specified_text is the text for which you are filtering and it IS case sensitive unless you use the
ignore-case sub-option.
The grep command accepts an ignore-case sub-option that forces the search to case-insensitive. For
example, the commands:
•
show run | grep Ethernet returns a search result with instances containing a capitalized
"Ethernet," such as interface TengigabitEthernet 0/0.
•
show run | grep ethernet does not return that search result because it only searches for instances
containing a non-capitalized "ethernet."
•
show run | grep Ethernet ignore-case returns instances containing both "Ethernet" and
"ethernet."
