If you do not specify a sequence number, the description is attached to the first entry in the prefix list at the
time the description is entered.
description-string
Specifies a description string of up to 80 characters.
If you delete the entry to which the description is attached, the description is deleted also.
Viewing prefix lists
The
show ip prefix-list
command displays the content of prefix lists.
Syntax:
show [ip | ipv6 prefix-list] [name
list-name
] [summary | detail]
Displays the content of prefix lists.
[ip | ipv6]
Specifies an IPv4 (IP) or IPv6 prefix list.
name list-name
Specifies the name of the prefix list to display. If this parameter is omitted, all prefix lists are displayed.
[summary | detail]
If neither
summary
nor
detail
is specified, the listing displays the name of the prefix list and each entry in
the list (not including descriptions.)
If
summary
is specified, the listing displays the name of the list and a summary of the entries (but not the
entries themselves.)
If
detail
is specified, the listing displays the summary information, the description (if it exists), and the
entries in the list.
Example
In a switch that contains two prefix lists, a standard display looks like this:
switch# show ip prefix-list
ip prefix-list Odd: 4 entries
seq 5 permit 10.1.1.1/24 ge 24 le 24
seq 10 deny 10.1.2.1/24 ge 24 le 24
seq 15 permit 10.1.3.1/24 ge 24 le 24
seq 20 deny 10.1.4.1/24 ge 24 le 24
ip prefix-list Even: 4 entries
seq 5 deny 10.1.1.1/24 ge 24 le 24
seq 10 permit 10.1.2.1/24 ge 24 le 24
seq 15 deny 10.1.3.1/24 ge 24 le 24
seq 20 permit 10.1.4.1/24 ge 24 le 24
A summary of the prefix lists looks like this:
switch# show ip prefix-list summary
ip prefix-list Odd: Count:4, Range-entries: 4,
Sequences: 5 - 20
