Understanding Basic Regular Expression (BRE) Syntax
The ESI syslog parser supports regular expressions created using the Basic Regular Expression (BRE) syntax
described in this section. BRE syntax consists of instructions—character-matching operators (described in
Table 242), repetition operators (described in Table 243), or expression anchors (described in Table 244)—used
to defined the search or match target.
This section contains the following topics:
l “Character-Matching Operators” on page512
l “Regular Expression Repetition Operators” on page513
l “Regular Expression Anchors” on page513
l “References” on page514
Character-Matching Operators
Character-matching operators define what the search will match.
Operator Description Sample Result
