Using Wildcards with Search and Filter Commands

Wildcards allow users to substitute symbols (

*

or

?

) for text patterns while using the Search

and Filter commands.

Any number of wildcards can be used within a single search string. In addition, multiple char-
acter (

*

) and single character (

?

) wildcards can be combined within a single search string.

Wildcard Command Options

Multiple Characters

An asterisk (

*

) is used as a wildcard for multiple characters in a text pattern. For example, the

Filter pattern

/*.img

will filter out all lines from the

UI

table except those containing any text followed by

.img

.

This wildcard can also be used within a specific text pattern. For example, the Filter pattern

/1*6

will filter out all lines from the

UI

table except those containing

1

, followed by any number of

characters, then

6

. For example:

1:3/6

or

33:3/1

Virtual port (#66)

or

16

.
