Create Paragraph Pattern and Support LinesByVariable Function

Create Paragraph Pattern and Support LinesByVariable Function

The AI can generate a paragraph pattern based on the given prompt. It also supports the 'linesByVariable' function as part of its capabilities.

• Command: show interface
• Prompt: (1) Please parse the interface name, interface status, mtu; (2) Get the lines containing these metrics as an interface config.

Steps:

1. Create a parser and define the parser name and description. 
2. Select device and input CLI command "show interface" to retrieve sample text. 
3. In the Prompt Input Pane, input the prompt (1), then click the Send button. a paragraph pattern "interface_summary" containing interface configuration data is created.  
   
   
4. Input the prompt (2), then click the Send button, then another pattern is created with a variable column "$interface_config" containing a summary of data from the first pattern. 
   
   
5. Click Apply to save the two patterns to parser. 

Note: AI creates parser rules by following the “pattern overwriting rule”: if two or more prompts are given in one session, each prompt will create new pattern. If the patterns have the same name, the latter one will overwrite the previously AI-generated patterns. In this example, two prompts are given, producing two patterns with the same name. The latter pattern will replace the first one.
