David,

Thanks for taking the time to post this, some of these I knew, but the shortcut for extended ping and sorting processes I had no clue about. I really appreciate it.

Thanks,

Robert

@ Jimmy

It depends on the IOS version. I’m using 12.4 train.

Yet I couldn’t find any precise explanation which IOS version starts all of these.

AFAIK, 12.3 would also do some of the job. (eg. sh run | b ospf but not sh run | s router ospf )

UHHH your do show run under global configuration does not work.

R1(config)#do show run
^
% Invalid input detected at ‘^’ marker.

R1(config)#do sh ip int brief
^
% Invalid input detected at ‘^’ marker.

R1(config)#do ?
. Version number

R1(config)#do 1 ?
% Unrecognized command
R1(config)#do 1.0 ?

UMMM??? This is IOS 12.2

Good work! I never knew of these shortcuts. I will use these shortcuts on my dynamips lab setups.
