Omitting Portions of the Hierarchy When Displaying a Configuration

You can use the apply-flags omit configuration statement to control which parts of the configuration hierarchy appear when you use the show command to display a configuration. This feature is useful for hiding portions of the configuration hierarchy that include lengthy or redundant configuration statements.

To omit a portion of the hierarchy from show command output, include the apply-flags omit configuration statement at any hierarchy level:

The portion of the hierarchy that contains the statement is omitted from show command output. Although the hierarchy is omitted from show command output, it is not omitted from the actual configuration.

Example: Omitting Portions of the Hierarchy When Displaying a Configuration

In the following configuration,

output from the show command appears as follows:

To override the apply-flags omit configuration statement and display an omitted configuration, use one of the following methods:

• Use the show <statement-path> command where <statement-path> specifies the omitted configuration. For example:

  [edit]

  user@host# show system services

  apply-flags omit;

  ftp;

  rlogin;

  rsh;

  telnet;

• Include the | (pipe) display omit option with the show command. For example:

  [edit system]

  user@host# show | display omit

  domain-search [ domain1.net spglab.domain2.net ];

  time-zone America/Los_Angeles;

  authentication-order [ password radius ];

  name-server {

  192.168.5.68;

  172.17.28.101;

  }

  radius-server {

  192.168.170.241 secret "$9$615r/u1SyKvWXB1EyreLX-VwgJGjH.zn9s2PTz6tp"; ## SECRET-DATA

  192.168.64.10 secret "$9$rR7l87ws4oJUx7dsYgGUHqmT36Ct0hyeP5BRhrMW"; ## SECRET-DATA

  }

  services {

      apply-rules omit;

  ftp;

  rlogin;

  rsh;

  telnet;

  }
