Description

(?P<isis_name>[\w-]+): This group allows both word characters (\w, i.e., letters, digits, underscores) and hyphens (-). This would be used when the isis_name might contain a hyphen, making it more flexible than the first pattern.

Motivation and Context

Purpose:
These patterns are typically used in parsing network outputs, particularly from IS-IS routing protocols, to extract specific information like the IS-IS process name (isis_name) and level (level_name) from lines that follow this structure.

For example, given the string:

vbnet
Copier le code
IS-IS test-Level-1 adjacencies:
In the first pattern, it will capture isis_name = "test".
In the second pattern, it will capture isis_name = "test-Level-1" because it allows for hyphens in the name.
