CLI List and Range Inputs
For CLI commands that allow an individual item to be selected from within a numeric range, lists
and ranges of items can now be specified. For example, the
/info/vlan
command permits the
following options:
The numbers in a range must be separated by a dash:
<start of range>
-
<end of range>
Multiple ranges or list items are permitted using a comma:
<range or item 1>
,
<range or item 2>
Do not use spaces within list and range specifications.
Ranges can also be used to apply the same command option to multiple items. For example, to
enable multiple ports with one command:
Note –
Port ranges accept only port numbers, not aliases such as INT1 or EXT1
