The Time Range commands are used in conjunction with the Access Profile commands listed in the previous chapter to determine a
starting point and an ending point, based on days of the week, when an Access Profile configuration will be enabled on the Switch.
Once configured here, the time range are to be applied to an access profile rule using the
config access_profile profile_id
command.
NOTE:
The Time Range commands are based on the time
settings of the Switch. Make sure to configure the time for the
Switch appropriately for these commands using commands listed
in the Time and SNTP Commands chapter later in this manual.
The Time Range commands in the Command Line Interface (CLI) are listed (along with the appropriate parameters) in the following
table.
Command Parameters
config time_range
<range_name 32> [hours start_time <time hh:mm:ss> end_time <time
hh:mm:ss> weekdays <daylist> | delete]
show time_range
Each command is listed, in detail, in the following sections.
config time_range
Purpose
Used to configure a time range in which an access profile rule is to be enabled.
Syntax
config time_range <range_name 32> [hours start_time <time hh:mm:ss>
end_time <time hh:mm:ss> weekdays <daylist> | delete]
Description
This command is to be used in conjunction with an access profile rule to determine
a period of time when an access profile and an associated rule are to be enabled on
the Switch. Remember, this time range can only be applied to one period of time
and also, it is based on the time set on the Switch.
Parameters
range_name 32
– Enter a name of no more than 32 alphanumeric characters that
will be used to identify this time range on the Switch. This range name will be used
in the
config access_profile profile_id
command to identify the access profile and
associated rule to be enabled for this time range.
hours
– This parameter is used to set the time in the day that this time range is to be
set using the following parameters:
•
start_time <time hh:mm:ss>
−
Use this parameter to identify the starting
time of the time range, in hours, minutes and seconds, based on the 24-
hour time system.
•
end_time <time hh:mm:ss>
−
Use this parameter to identify the ending
time of the time range, in hours, minutes and seconds, based on the 24-
hour time system.
weekdays
– Use this parameter to determine the days of the week to set this time
range.
•
<daylist>
−
The user may set the days of the week here to set this time
range in the three letter format (mon, tue, wed…). To specify a day range,
separate the daylist using a dash (mon-fri would mean Monday through
Friday). To specify a list of days in a week, separate the daylist using a
comma, with no spaces (mon,tue,fri would mean Monday, Tuesday and
Friday).
delete
– Use this parameter to delete a previously configured time range from the
system.
Restrictions
Only Administrator and Operator-level users can issue this command.
