Monks!
Here are few of the lines of a config file i need to scan :
interface Vlan1 no ip address no ip route-cache shutdown ! interface Vlan12 ip address 68.142.192.79 255.255.255.0 no ip route-cache shutdown ! interface Vlan8 ip address 68.142.192.79 255.255.255.0 no ip route-cache !
I need to create a hash of keys for eg : Vlan8,Vlan12 (not Vlan1) and value containing : 8,12 respectively. Only those key-value pair gets stored which has an ip address given in the next 1 or more lines. I tried the following :
while(<IN>) { my ($key) = /^(interface Vlan[\d]*)/; next if $key =~ /^\s ip address \d*\.\d*\.\d*\.\d* \d*\.\d*\.\d*\.\d*/ +; # next if $key =~ /^\s*$/; my ($value) = /^interface Vlan([\d]*)/; $hash1{$key} = $value ; }

but keep getting the following result :
interface Vlan1 => 1 interface Vlan8 => 8 interface Vlan12 => 12
I dont' want Vlan1. plz. help!
