Disregarding Output That Does Not Match a Regular Expression

If the regular expression contains any spaces, operators, or wildcard characters, enclose it in quotation marks.

For information about common regular expression operators, see .

To disregard text that matches a regular expression:

  • Specify the except command after the pipe symbol.

The following example displays information about configuration interfaces with the exception of the family information for each interface:

user@host> show configuration interfaces |except family
lo {
  unit 0 {
      inet {
        address 192.0.0.1;
      }
    }
  }
}
eth0 {
  unit 0 {
      inet {
        address 10.27.7.45/24;
      }
    }
  }
}
