As with the commands for filtering output from show commands, the search string is a regular expression consisting of a single
character or string of characters. You can use special characters to construct complex regular expressions. See the next section for
information on special characters used with regular expressions.
Using special characters in regular expressions
You use a regular expression to specify a single character or multiple characters as a search string. In addition, you can include special
characters that influence the way the software matches the output against the search string. These special characters are listed in the
following table.

Operation
The period matches on any single character, including a blank space.
For example, the following regular expression matches "aaz", "abz", "acz",
and so on, but not just "az":
a.z
The asterisk matches on zero or more sequential instances of a pattern.
For example, the following regular expression matches output that
contains the string "abc", followed by zero or more Xs:
abcX*
