I want to get the whole paragraph that contain the key words.
For example, the following is the output of "ifconfig -a"
bond0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:11:3F:C1:47:98
inet6 addr: fe80::211:3fff:fec1:4798/64 Scope:Link

bond0:oam Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:11:3F:C1:47:98
inet addr:135.2.156.97 Bcast:135.2.156.111 Mask:255.255.255.240
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MASTER MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
bond0:oamA Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:11:3F:C1:47:98
inet addr:135.2.156.103 Bcast:135.2.156.111 Mask:255.255.255.240
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MASTER MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
And I want to extract the paragraph in bold. That is, the paragraph contain the key words "bond0:oamA"
I know if I use grep, only the line
bond0:oamA Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:11:3F:C1:47:98
will be got. But I want to extract the whole paragraph contain the key words.
Is there a method to get this paragraph?
Thanks a lot!
Try this command:
ifconfig -a | awk -vRS='' '$1~/bond0:oamA/'
When RS
is null
, awk parse file as multi-line-record.
