trim on output
Today I learned a handy option in show command which is particularly useful when debugging trace files. For example if you display a debug file
host>show log debug.log Apr 8 21:36:29 21:36:28.1118827:CID-0:RT:packet [60] ipid = 60723, @4094a01c Apr 8 21:36:29 21:36:28.1118978:CID-0:RT:---- flow_process_pkt: (thd 3): flow_ctxt type 13, common flag 0x0, mbuf 0x40949e80, rtbl_idx = 0 Apr 8 21:36:29 21:36:28.1118978:CID-0:RT: flow process pak fast ifl 85 in_ifp ge-0/0/8.0 Apr 8 21:36:29 21:36:28.1118978:CID-0:RT: ge-0/0/8.0:10.200.2.11/50998->122.122.122.188/80, tcp, flag 2 syn Apr 8 21:36:29 21:36:28.1118978:CID-0:RT: find flow: table 0x46f0ccd0, hash 9134(0xffff), sa 10.200.2.11, da 122.122.122.188, sp 50998, dp 80, proto 6, tok 6 Apr 8 21:36:29 21:36:28.1118978:CID-0:RT: no session found, start first path. in_tunnel - 0, from_cp_flag - 0
output will contain many columns which you won’t need in troubleshooting. In order to remove the columns from the left side simly run;
host>show log debug.log | trim 42
