Is there a way to omit all the unused config from a 'show conf'

[Bruce_Garlock]

Coming from a mostly Procurve background, the one thing we are finding more difficult is the CLI output from EXOS. Is there any way to omit the features we aren't using, so there are not show many pages of output when doing a 'show conf' ?

That's very helpful - thanks! I live in BASH all day, so anytime I can pipe, I'm happy 🙂

As a workaround you can use the command below to remove any line with a # in it:

show config | e "#"

This should minimize the amount of output you receive.

Unfortunately you can't omit unused modules. If you are looking for specific configuration you can either specify the module you would like to look at after "show configuration" or you can use the "| i" filter. For example, "show config | i vlan". This will display any lines in the output that have that specific string in it.

Yes.

Are you referring to the modules that may come up empty?
