If you have the linux install of Netsight, I've used grep to find strings inside of config files. I believe it is something like grep -Hrn 'search term' path/to/files. With Windows you can use DOS, and Findstr command there: http://www.computerhope.com/findstr.htm

Yup, thanks Jay, but that was mainly my point about the port consolidation. And those were only examples I gave - ideally one command would show *any* line of config which referenced the given port - spanning tree, policy, maclock - anything. N.

You might have ports ge.1.1-10 configured in a command. The find command wouldn't match on ge.1.3 for this string. Oh ya, not for the C-series, only N/K/S (AFAIK).

Hi, We have S-series, N-series, C-series switches and I have always thought it would be helpful to be able to type a command on a switch - something like: show config port ge.1.3 and have it return all the lines of non-default config which refer to that port - duplex, speed, lacp, alias, mirroring, vlan egress etc - for example: show config port ge.1.3 might return: set port alias ge.1.3 lon-srv1-nic1 set port duplex ge.1.1-10 full set port lacp port ge.1.3 aadminkey 333 set port negotiation ge.1.3 disable set port vlan ge.1.3 14 set vlan egress 15 ge.1.2-8;lag.0.1-2 tagged set vlan egress 121 ge.1.1-5;ge.2.12-15;lag.0.1-3 untagged Mainly when re-purposing a port, it's useful to know if someone previously turned off negotiation etc, or had it as part of a LAG. Obviously stepping through the config file is do-able but a can be a bit time-consuming. Is there already anything like this - preferably from the command line? Assuming there isn't, then we pull our configs off regularly and commit any changes to an SVN repo, so I could run a command against a copy of that text file on the remote box as a second best option. In which case, I don't suppose anyone has written a regex or a script that could handle that have they?
