How to read vm-support output

[dingding]

when i extract vm-support, i find a lot of files and directories. too many info make me lost. for some infomation, like ESX adv config parameter, i can easily browser and get what i want, but if i want some info about vswitch, physical nics, i know most are in /etc/vmware/esx.conf, but this file is hard to read compare to esxcfg-* command. so is there some tools can convert the info in vm-support, make it easy to read and understand

Once you extract the files, look in the /tmp directory for outputs from most of the common commands, like vdf and esxcfg-nics, etc.
