Displaying Additional Information About the Configuration

In configuration mode only, to display additional information about the configuration, use the display detail command after the pipe ( | ) in conjunction with a show command. The additional information includes the help string that explains each configuration statement and the permission bits required to add and modify the configuration statement.

user@host# show <hierarchy-level> | display detail

For example:
