begin: Optioanl parameter, displays all items beginning friom the matching item.
exclude: Optional parameter, only displays the matching items.
include: Optional parameter, only displays the non-matching items..
text: Defines the regular expression.
Description
Use the display logbuffer command to view the attribute of logbuffer and the 
information recorded in logbuffer.
All log messages are saved in the log buffer. When the log buffer is full, the latest 
message will overlap the earliest one.
The displaying sequence of all log messages is from the newest message to the 
oldest one.
When you input size, if the size of current configured log messages is bigger than 
the logsize, the system will search for the messages on the following principles.
If you input reverse, the system will search for logsize matiching messages 
from the oldest one( the head of the log buffer), then displays them from the 
newest message to the oldest one.
If you do not input inverse, the system will search for the logsize matiching 
messages from the newest one( the end of the log buffer), then displays them 
from the newest message to the oldest one.
Example
# Show the system logbuffer attribute and the log information in logbuffer.
<SW8800> display logbuffer

Table 142   Special characters in the regular expression
Special 
characters 
Description 
Restriction 
Underscore, similar to a wildcard 
and can stand for these characters:
(^|$|[,(){} ])
A space, the beginning of the input 
string, the end of the input string 
If the first character in the regular 
expression is not a underscore, then 
there is no restriction on the 
number of the underscore (but it is 
restricted by the command length)
If the first character in the regular 
expression is an underscore, then 
there should be less than five 
consecutive underscores.
If the underscores in a command 
are discrete, on the first group of 
underscores are filtered for the 
output information, but not the 
subsequent underscores. 
Left parenthesis, push flag in 
program 
It is recommended not to use this 
character in the regular expression.
