Service Manual

Parameters
interface,
interface,...
Enter the keywords interface range and one of the interfaces — slot/port, port-
channel, or VLAN number. Select the range of interfaces for bulk configuration. You can
enter up to six comma-separated ranges. Spaces are not required between the commas.
Comma-separated ranges can include VLANs, port-channels, and physical interfaces.
Slot/Port information must contain a space before and after the dash. For example,
interface range tengigabitethernet 0/1 - 5 is valid; interface
range tengigabitethernet 0/1-5 is NOT valid.
• For a Port Channel interface, enter the keywords port-channel then a number.
The range is from 1 to 128.
• 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 VLAN interface, enter the keyword vlan then a number from 1 to 4094.
Defaults none

Command History
Version Description
9.9(0.0) Introduced on the FN IOM.
8.3.16.1 Introduced on the MXL 10/40GbE Switch IO Module.
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 1/1, fa 0/0
% Warning: Non-existing ports (not configured) are ignored by
interface-range
Example (Multiple
Ports)
Dell(conf)#interface range te 2/1 - 8, te 2/1 - 4
Dell(conf-if-range-te-2/1-8)#
Example
(Overlapping Ports)
Dell(conf)#interface range te 2/1 - 3, te 2/1 - 7
Dell(conf-if-range-te-2/1-7)#
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.
