• xml—(Operational mode only) Display the command output as JUNOScript (Extensible Markup Language [XML]) tags.

except pattern—Ignore text matching a regular expression when searching the output. If the regular expression contains spaces, operators, or wildcard characters, enclose it in quotation marks.

find pattern—Display the output starting at the first occurrence of text matching a regular expression. If the regular expression contains spaces, operators, or wildcard characters, enclose it in quotation marks (" ").
