Overlap port ranges
If overlapping port ranges are specified, the port range is extended to the smallest start port number and
largest end port number:
Figure 17-21. Interface Range Prompt Including Overlapping Port Ranges
Commas
The example below shows how to use commas to add different interface types to the range, enabling all
Gigabit Ethernet interfaces in the range 5/1 to 5/23 and both Ten Gigabit Ethernet interfaces 1/1 and 1/2.

Add ranges
The example below shows how to use commas to add VLAN and port-channel interfaces to the range.

Interface Range Macros
The user 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, you
must define the macro.
To define an interface-range macro, enter this command:
Command Syntax Command Mode Purpose
FTOS (config)#
define interface-range macro_name {vlan
vlan_ID - vlan_ID} | {{
gigabitethernet | tengigabitethernet |
fortyGigE
} slot / interface - interface} [ {vlan vlan_ID -
vlan_ID} {{
gigabitethernet | tengigabitethernet | fortyGigE}
slot/interface - interface}]
CONFIGURATION Defines the interface-range
macro and saves it in the
running configuration file.
FTOS(conf)#inte ra gi 2/1 - 11 , gi 2/1 - 23
FTOS(conf-if-range-gi-2/1-23)#
FTOS(config-if)# interface range gigabitethernet 5/1 - 23, tengigabitethernet 1/1 - 2
