Regular Expressions
A regular expression is a pattern (a phrase, number, or more complex pattern).
•
•
A regular expression can be a single-character pattern or multiple-character pattern. It can be a single
character that matches the same single character in the command output or multiple characters that
match the same multiple characters in the command output. The pattern in the command output is called
a string.
The simplest regular expression is a single character that matches the same single character in the
command output. Letter (A-Z and a-z), digits (0-9), and other keyboard characters (such as ! or ~) can
be used as a single-character pattern.

Regular expressions are case sensitive and allow for complex matching requirements. Simple
regular expressions include entries like Serial, misses, or 138.
Complex regular expressions include entries like 00210... , ( is ), or [Oo]utput.
