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, and port-channel interfaces, only commands related to physical
interfaces can be bulk configured. To configure commands specific to VLAN or port-channel, 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 tengigabitethernet 1/1 - 23
Dell(config-if-range)# no shutdown
Dell(config-if-range)#
Example
(peGigE-Single
Range)
This example shows single range configuration for PE Gigabit Ethernet ports.
Dell(conf)#interface range pegigE 1/0/3-14
Dell(conf-if-range-pegi-1/0/3-14)#
Example
(Multiple Range)
This example shows how to use commas to add different interface types to the range enabling all 10-
Gigabit Ethernet interfaces in the range 2/1 to 2/23 and both 10-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces 1/1 and 1/2.
Dell(config-if)# interface range tengigabitethernet 2/1-23,
tengigabitethernet 1/1-2
Dell(config-if-range)# no shutdown
Dell(config-if-range)#
Example
(Multiple Range)
This example shows how to use commas to add VLAN and port-channel interfaces to the range.
Dell(config-if)# interface range tengigabitethernet 2/1-23,
tengigabitethernet 1/1–2,
Vlan 2–100, Port 1–25
Dell(config-if-range)# no shutdown
Dell(config-if-range)#
