Usage
Information When creating an interface range, interfaces appear in the order they are entered;
they are not sorted. The command verifies that interfaces are present (physical) or
configured (logical).
Important Points to Remember:
• Bulk configuration is created if at least one interface is valid.
• Non-existing interfaces are excluded from the bulk configuration with a
warning message.
• The
interface range
prompt includes interface types with slot/port
information for valid interfaces. The prompt allows for a maximum of 32
characters. If the bulk configuration exceeds 32 characters, it is represented by
an ellipsis ( ... ).
• When the
interface range
prompt has multiple port ranges, the smaller port
range is excluded from the prompt.
• If overlapping port ranges are specified, the port range is extended to the
smallest start port and the biggest end port.
Example (Bulk)
Dell(conf)#interface range so 2/0-1, te 10/0, gi 3/0, fa 0/0
% Warning: Non-existing ports (not configured) are ignored by
interface-range
Example
(Multiple Ports)
Dell(conf)#interface range gi 2/0 - 23, gi 2/1 - 10
Dell(conf-if-range-gi-2/0-23#
Example
(Overlapping
Ports)
Dell(conf)#interface range gi 2/1 - 11, gi 2/1 - 23
Dell(conf-if-range-gi-2/1-23#
Usage
Information
Only VLAN and port-channel interfaces created using the
interface vlan
and
interface port-channel
commands can be used in the
interface range
command.
Use the
show running-config
command to display the VLAN and port-channel
interfaces. VLAN or port-channel interfaces that are not displayed in the
show
running-config
command cannot be used with the bulk configuration feature of
the
interface range
command. You cannot create virtual interfaces (VLAN,
Port-channel) using the
interface range
command.
NOTE: If a range has VLAN, physical, port-channel, and SONET interfaces, only
commands related to physical interfaces can be bulk configured. To configure
commands specific to VLAN, port-channel, or SONET, only those respective
interfaces should be configured in a particular range.
Example (Single
Range)
This example shows a single range bulk configuration.
Dell(config)# interface range gigabitethernet 5/1 - 23
Dell(config-if-range)# no shutdown
Dell(config-if-range)#
