When you issue an operational mode command in a QFabric system, the output generated can be fairly extensive because of the number of components contained within the system. To make the output more accessible, you can filter the output by appending the | filter option to the end of most Junos OS commands.

1. To filter operational mode command output and limit it to a Node group, include the | filter node-group node-group-name option at the end of your Junos OS operational mode command.
   root@qfabric> show interfaces terse | filter node-group NW-NG-0

2. To filter operational mode command output and limit it to a set of Node groups, include the | filter node-group option at the end of your Junos OS operational mode command and specify the list of Node group names in brackets.
   root@qfabric> show ethernet-switching interfaces | filter node-group [NW-NG-0 RSNG-1]
