Recently, I noticed a customer who had a port down in a port-channel. I then wanted to know what other port-channels had only 1 member, indicating something was down. For something like this, multiple includes become very handy. A normal “show interface gives way too much information.

rtra#sh int port-channel 1
Port-channel1 is up, line protocol is up (connected)
Hardware is EtherChannel, address is 0019.e8f7.9b9a (bia 0019.e8f7.9b9a)
Description: po1.rtrb
MTU 1500 bytes, BW 3000000 Kbit, DLY 10 usec,
reliability 255/255, txload 91/255, rxload 90/255
Encapsulation ARPA, loopback not set
Full-duplex, 1000Mb/s, link type is auto, media type is unknown
Media-type configured as  connector
input flow-control is off, output flow-control is unsupported
Members in this channel: Gi1/0/1 Gi1/0/26 Gi2/0/3
ARP type: ARPA, ARP Timeout 04:00:00
Last input never, output 00:00:00, output hang never
Last clearing of "show interface" counters never
Input queue: 0/75/0/0 (size/max/drops/flushes); Total output drops: 0
Queueing strategy: fifo
Output queue: 0/40 (size/max)
30 second input rate 1070140000 bits/sec, 144160 packets/sec
30 second output rate 1072744000 bits/sec, 156507 packets/sec
1671100505275 packets input, 1585187716875702 bytes, 0 no buffer
Received 25759047 broadcasts (0 multicasts)
183 runts, 0 giants, 0 throttles
183 input errors, 0 CRC, 0 frame, 0 overrun, 0 ignored
0 watchdog, 25759047 multicast, 0 pause input
0 input packets with dribble condition detected
1816857829511 packets output, 1585976492275229 bytes, 0 underruns
0 output errors, 0 collisions, 3 interface resets
0 babbles, 0 late collision, 0 deferred
0 lost carrier, 0 no carrier, 0 PAUSE output
0 output buffer failures, 0 output buffers swapped out
In my case, the multiple includes would work perfectly and give me just the information I wanted. Here is what I would do:

rtra#show interface | i Port-channel|Member
Port-channel1 is up, line protocol is up (connected)
Members in this channel: Gi1/0/1 Gi1/0/26 Gi2/0/3
Port-channel2 is up, line protocol is up (connected)
Members in this channel: Gi1/0/28 Gi2/0/7 Gi2/0/27
Port-channel3 is up, line protocol is up (connected)
Members in this channel: Gi1/0/13
Port-channel4 is down, line protocol is down (notconnect)
Port-channel5 is up, line protocol is up (connected)
Members in this channel: Gi1/0/17
Port-channel6 is up, line protocol is up (connected)
Members in this channel: Gi1/0/14 Gi2/0/14
As you can see, the information was greatly reduced and it was only exactly what I wanted. This way, I can tell which port-channels are having a possible issue because they only have 1 member. Another good example is for seeing interface name and duplex/speed settings. 

switch-a#sh int | i Gig|duplex
GigabitEthernet1/1 is up, line protocol is up (connected)
  Full-duplex, 100Mb/s, media type is 10/100/1000BaseT
GigabitEthernet1/2 is down, line protocol is down (notconnect)
  Auto-duplex, Auto-speed, media type is 10/100/1000BaseT
GigabitEthernet1/3 is up, line protocol is up (connected)
  Full-duplex, 1000Mb/s, media type is 10/100/1000BaseT
GigabitEthernet1/4 is up, line protocol is up (connected)
  Full-duplex, 1000Mb/s, media type is 10/100/1000BaseT
GigabitEthernet1/5 is up, line protocol is up (connected)
  Full-duplex, 1000Mb/s, media type is 10/100/1000BaseT
GigabitEthernet1/6 is up, line protocol is up (connected)
  Full-duplex, 1000Mb/s, media type is 10/100/1000BaseT
