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 the 
ignore-case
 
sub-option is implemented.
Starting with FTOS 7.8.1.0, 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 GigabitEthernet 0/0.
show run | grep ethernet
 
would not return that search result because it only searches for instances 
containing a non-capitalized “ethernet.”
Executing the command 
show run | grep Ethernet ignore-case
 
would return instances containing both 
“Ethernet” and “ethernet.”

Note: FTOS accepts a space or no space before and after the pipe. To filter on a phrase with spaces, 
underscores, or ranges, enclose the phrase with double quotation marks.
