Chapter 9 Configuring Interfaces
Configuring a Range of Interfaces
•
With releases earlier than Release 12.2(18)SXD, for VLAN interfaces, the
interface range
command supports only those VLAN interfaces for which Layer 2 VLANs have been created with
the
interface vlan
command (the
show running-configuration
command displays the configured
VLAN interfaces). The
interface range
command does not support VLAN interfaces that are not
displayed by the
show running-configuration
command.
•
With Release 12.2(18)SXD and later releases, the
interface range
command supports VLAN
interfaces for which Layer 2 VLANs have not been created with the
interface vlan
command.
Note
The link state messages (LINK-3-UPDOWN and LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN) are disabled by default.
Enter the
logging event link status
command on each interface where you want the messages enabled.
This example shows how to reenable all Fast Ethernet ports 5/1 to 5/5:
Router(config)#
interface range fastethernet 5/1 - 5
Router(config-if)#
no shutdown
Router(config-if)#
*Oct 6 08:24:35: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface FastEthernet5/1, changed state to up
*Oct 6 08:24:35: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface FastEthernet5/2, changed state to up
*Oct 6 08:24:35: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface FastEthernet5/3, changed state to up
*Oct 6 08:24:35: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface FastEthernet5/4, changed state to up
*Oct 6 08:24:35: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface FastEthernet5/5, changed state to up
*Oct 6 08:24:36: %LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface FastEthernet5/
5, changed state to up
*Oct 6 08:24:36: %LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface FastEthernet5/
3, changed state to up
*Oct 6 08:24:36: %LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface FastEthernet5/
4, changed state to up
Router(config-if)#
This example shows how to use a comma to add different interface type strings to the range to reenable
all Fast Ethernet ports in the range 5/1 to 5/5 and both Gigabit Ethernet ports (1/1 and 1/2):
Router(config-if)#
interface range fastethernet 5/1 - 5, gigabitethernet 1/1 - 2
Router(config-if)#
no shutdown
Router(config-if)#
*Oct 6 08:29:28: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface FastEthernet5/1, changed state to up
*Oct 6 08:29:28: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface FastEthernet5/2, changed state to up
*Oct 6 08:29:28: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface FastEthernet5/3, changed state to up
*Oct 6 08:29:28: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface FastEthernet5/4, changed state to up
*Oct 6 08:29:28: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface FastEthernet5/5, changed state to up
*Oct 6 08:29:28: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface GigabitEthernet1/1, changed state to
up
*Oct 6 08:29:28: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface GigabitEthernet1/2, changed state to
up
*Oct 6 08:29:29: %LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface FastEthernet5/
5, changed state to up
*Oct 6 08:29:29: %LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface FastEthernet5/
3, changed state to up
*Oct 6 08:29:29: %LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface FastEthernet5/
4, changed state to up
Router(config-if)#
If you enter multiple configuration commands while you are in interface-range configuration mode, each
command is executed as it is entered (they are not batched together and executed after you exit
interface-range configuration mode).
If you exit interface-range configuration mode while the commands are being executed, some commands
may not be executed on all interfaces in the range. Wait until the command prompt reappears before
exiting interface-range configuration mode.
