Grep command help to search and print the lines between the matches

Hello All,

I'm working to get the complete configuration of VIP from the "/" using recursive search. Below command is working to get the configuration of a VIP and it print 75 lines after the search by this way configuration of an other VIP is also getting printed.

 

show running-config ltm recursive virtual all-properties | grep "VIP_NAME" -A 75

 

Can u help to further tune the search with start string of "VIP NAME" and print the lines and it should stop if there is a match for the string "vs-index"

 

Regards,

Thiyagu

    You have to run the same command from outside of TMSH shell (I mean Bash shell).

    tmsh -q -c "cd / ; show running-config ltm recursive virtual all-properties" | awk '/VIP_NAME/,/vs-index/'

    KR,

    Dario.
