Displaying Inherited Values

Configuration groups can add some confusion regarding the actual values used by the router, because configuration data can be inherited from configuration groups. To view the actual values used by the router, use the display inheritance command after the pipe in a show command. This command displays the inherited statements at the level at which they are inherited and the group from which they have been inherited.



[edit]
user@host# show | display inheritance 

snmp {
location "West of Nowhere";
##
## 'My Engineering Group' was inherited from group 'basic'
##
contact "My Engineering Group";
##
## 'BasicAccess' was inherited from group 'basic'
##


community BasicAccess {
##
## 'read-only' was inherited from group 'basic'
##
authorization read-only;
}


}

To display the expanded configuration (the configuration, including the inherited statements) without the ## lines, use the except command after the pipe in a show command:



[edit]
user@host# show | display inheritance | except
## 

snmp {
location "West of Nowhere";
contact "My Engineering Group";


community BasicAccess {
authorization read-only;
}


}
