With respect to awk '/^virtual/,/^}$/' /config/bigip.conf

 

which prints ALL virtual objects defined.

 

 

Is they a way to limit the output, such that, if I have 100 virtuals defined,

 

but only need the subset where a specific iRule is declared.

 

 

I am wondering if there is a way to inject a 'where' clause as a way of limiting the output.

 

something like where 'rules SNAT2VIP' exists

 

 

TIA,
