Chapter 9 Configuring Interfaces
Using Interface Configuration Mode
Use the no define interface-range macro_name global configuration command to delete a macro.
When using the define interface-range global configuration command, note these guidelines:
•
Valid entries for interface-range:
–
vlan vlan-ID - vlan-ID, where the VLAN ID is 1 to 4094
–
gigabitethernet module/{first port} - {last port}, where the module is always 0
–
tengigabitethernet module/{first port} - {last port}, where the module is always 0
–
port-channel port-channel-number - port-channel-number, where the port-channel-number
is 1 to 26.
Note
When you use the interface ranges with port channels, the first and last port channel number
must be active port channels.
•
You must add a space between the first interface number and the hyphen when entering an
interface-range. For example, gigabitethernet0/1 - 2 is a valid range; gigabitethernet0/1-2 is not
a valid range.
•
The VLAN interfaces must have been configured with the interface vlan command. The show
running-config privileged EXEC command displays the configured VLAN interfaces. VLAN
interfaces not displayed by the show running-config command cannot be used as interface-ranges.
•
All interfaces defined as in a range must be the same type (all Fast Ethernet ports, all Gigabit
Ethernet ports, all EtherChannel ports, or all VLANs), but you can combine multiple interface types
in a macro.
This example shows how to define an interface-range named enet_list to include ports 1 and 2 and to
verify the macro configuration:
Switch#
configure terminal
Switch(config)#
define interface-range enet_list gigabitethernet0/1 - 2
Switch(config)#
end
Switch#
show running-config | include define
define interface-range enet_list GigabitEthernet0/1 - 2
Command
Purpose
Step 1
configure terminal
Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
define interface-range macro_name
interface-range
Define the interface-range macro, and save it in NVRAM.
•
The macro_name is a 32-character maximum character string.
•
A macro can contain up to five comma-separated interface ranges.
•
Each interface-range must consist of the same port type.
Step 3
interface range macro macro_name
Select the interface range to be configured using the values saved in
the interface-range macro called macro_name.
You can now use the normal configuration commands to apply the
configuration to all interfaces in the defined macro.
Step 4
end
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 5
show running-config | include define
Show the defined interface range macro configuration.
Step 6
copy running-config startup-config
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
