Administrator Guide
Also, you can associate a static multicast MAC address with one or more VLANs and port interfaces by using the mac-address-table
static multicast-mac-address vlan vlan-id output-range interface command.
Defining Interface Range Macros
You can define an interface-range macro to automatically select a range of interfaces for configuration.
Before you can use the macro keyword in the interface-range macro command string, define the macro.
To define an interface-range macro, use the following command.
• Defines the interface-range macro and saves it in the running configuration file.
CONFIGURATION mode
define interface-range macro_name {vlan vlan_ID - vlan_ID} | {{tengigabitethernet |
fortyGigE} slot/port - port} | {{peGigE | peTenGigE} pe-id/unit-id/port-id} [{vlan vlan_ID -
vlan_ID} {{tengigabitethernet | fortyGigE} slot/port - port} |{peGigE pe-id/unit-id/port-id}]
Define the Interface Range
The following example shows how to define an interface-range macro named “test” to select 10–GigabitEthernet interfaces 5/1 through
5/4.
Dell(config)# define interface-range test tengigabitethernet 5/1 - 4
Choosing an Interface-Range Macro
To use an interface-range macro, use the following command.
• Selects the interfaces range to be configured using the values saved in a named interface-range macro.
CONFIGURATION mode
interface range macro name
The following example shows how to change to the interface-range configuration mode using the interface-range macro named “test.”
Dell(config)# interface range macro test
Dell(config-if)#
Monitoring and Maintaining Interfaces
Monitor interface statistics with the monitor interface command. This command displays an ongoing list of the interface status
(up/down), number of packets, traffic statistics, and so on.
To view the interface’s statistics, use the following command.
• View the interface’s statistics.
EXEC Privilege mode
Enter the type of interface and slot/port information:
• For the Management interface, enter the keyword ManagementEthernet then the slot/port information.
• For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/port information.
• For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fortyGigE then the slot/port information.
• For a port extender (PE) Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword peGigE then the pe-id/pe-stack—unit-id/port-number
information.
• For a port extender 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword peTenGigE then the pe-id/stack-unit/port-id information.
The information displays in a continuous run, refreshing every 2 seconds by default. To manage the output, use the following keys.
• m — Change mode
• l — Page up
• T — Increase refresh interval (by 1 second)
• t — Decrease refresh interval (by 1 second)
