How can I parse through a log file, extract certain values and construct a tab or comma delimited text file?
I am trying to convert a pre-formatted section within a log file into a comma or tab delimited tabular view.
Here's a sample section contained in the log file:
Appliance-01> home
Appliance-01> show debug lldp
logout
LLDP information:
IfIdx 16 ("1/1/1") Information:
Chassis ID: XYZ0-ABCD-EFGH0(SWITCH01)
System name: XYZ0-ABCD-EFGH0(SWITCH01)
System description: SOME-SWITCH
Software version: Cisco OS
Platform:
Port ID: Ethernet1/40
Port description: Ethernet1/40
Management address: 10.20.30.41
Time to live: 180s (170s remaining)
IfIdx 17 ("1/1/2") Information:
Chassis ID: XYZ0-ABCD-EFGH0(SWITCH02)
System name: XYZ0-ABCD-EFGH0(SWITCH02)
System description: SOME-SWITCH
Software version: Cisco OS
Platform:
Port ID: Ethernet1/40
Port description: Ethernet1/40
Management address: 10.20.30.42
Time to live: 180s (170s remaining)
I would like this to look like this:
Appliance Name, Interface, Chassis ID, System name, Port ID, Port Desc, Mgmt addr
Appliance-01, IfIdx 16 ("1/1/1"), XYZ0-ABCD-EFGH0(SWITCH01), XYZ0-ABCD-EFGH0(SWITCH01), Ethernet1/40, Ethernet1/40, 10.20.30.41
Appliance-01, IfIdx 17 ("1/1/2"), XYZ0-ABCD-EFGH0(SWITCH02), XYZ0-ABCD-EFGH0(SWITCH02), Ethernet1/40, Ethernet1/40, 10.20.30.42
And then eventually utilize the same script to parse through a large number of log files and produce a much larger output.
awk sed grep scripting csv
