# Viewing Services To view a description of all the loaded and active units, run the `systemctl` command without any options or arguments: systemctl To see all the loaded, active, and inactive units and their description, run the following command: systemctl --all To see all the unit files and their current status but no description, run thie following command: systemctl list-unit-files The `grep` command filters the services by a search term, a helpful tactic to recall the exact name of a unit file without looking through a long list of names. Example: systemctl list-unit-files | grep network org.freedesktop.network1.busname static dbus-org.freedesktop.network1.service enabled systemd-networkd-wait-online.service enabled systemd-networkd.service enabled systemd-networkd.socket enabled network-online.target static network-pre.target static network.target static
