@RudiC

I would like execute a command as below.

ssh user@host " AWK Command "

But the AWK command should be flexible enough to compare the pattern with column which is passed as input.

For example :

For below o/p i want to check for pattern 9511 in only 2nd column or only 1st column.
I need to pass the column as i/p variable to awk and compare with the pattern.


$ netstat -an | grep 951
200.103.10.10.50224 100.103.10.10.9511 49640 0 49640 0 ESTABLISHED
200.103.10.10.50263 100.103.10.10.9512 49640 0 49640 0 ESTABLISHED
200.103.10.10.50278 100.103.10.10.9513 49640 0 49640 0 ESTABLISHED
200.103.10.10.50292 100.103.10.10.9514 49640 0 49640 0 ESTABLISHED
