commands. In this example, you will search for IP addresses beginning 198.206.2. To do
this, enter / at the Filter mode’s More? prompt, followed by the specified text pattern:
/198.206.2
Press <Enter>. A screen similar to the following is displayed:
Note that the IP address, 198.206.200.0, now appears at the top of the screen, followed by
any remaining lines in the table. (In this case, the last line of the ipr table contains infor-
mation for IP address 198.206.203.0, as shown).
Using Wildcards with Search and Filter Commands
Wildcards allow users to substitute symbols (* or ?) for text patterns while using the Search
and Filter commands.
Any number of wildcards can be used within a single search string. In addition, multiple char-
acter (*) and single character (?) wildcards can be combined within a single search string.
Wildcard Command Options
Multiple Characters
An asterisk (*) is used as a wildcard for multiple characters in a text pattern. For example, the
Filter pattern
/*.img
will filter out all lines from the UI table except those containing any text followed by .img.
This wildcard can also be used within a specific text pattern. For example, the Filter pattern
/1*6
will filter out all lines from the UI table except those containing 1, followed by any number of
characters, then 6. For example:
1:3/6
or
33:3/1 Virtual port (#66)
or
16.
