--filter_version=<versions>
The parameter is used with the list mssql_instances command. If specified, the software will list only instances of those Microsoft SQL Server versions that contain the values you have specified.
Without this parameter, instances of any Microsoft SQL Server version will be displayed.
Example:
If you specify --filter_version=500, the software will display instances of the following Microsoft SQL Server versions: 9.00.5000.00 and 10.00.5500.00.
