Add Ranges
The following example shows how to use commas to add VLAN and port-channel interfaces to the range.
Example of Adding VLAN and Port-Channel Interface Ranges
Dell(config-if-range-gi-1/1-1/2)# interface range Vlan 2 – 100 , Port 1 – 25
Dell(config-if-range-gi-1/1-1/2-vl-2-100-po-1-25)# no shutdown
Dening Interface Range Macros
You can dene an interface-range macro to automatically select a range of interfaces for conguration.
Before you can use the macro keyword in the interface-range macro command string, dene the macro.
To dene an interface-range macro, use the following command.
• Denes the interface-range macro and saves it in the running conguration le.
CONFIGURATION mode
define interface-range macro_name {vlan vlan_ID - vlan_ID | {{gigabitethernet |
tengigabitethernet} slot/port - slot/port}} [ , {vlan vlan_ID - vlan_ID | {{gigabitethernet |
tengigabitethernet} slot/port - slot/port}]
Dene the Interface Range
The following example shows how to dene an interface-range macro named “test” to select Ten Gigabit Ethernet interfaces 5/1 through
5/4.
Example of the define interface-range Command for Macros
Dell(config)# define interface-range test gigabitethernet 5/1 - 5/4
Choosing an Interface-Range Macro
To use an interface-range macro, use the following command.
• Selects the interfaces range to be congured using the values saved in a named interface-range macro.
CONFIGURATION mode
interface range macro name
Example of Using a Macro to Change the Interface Range Conguration Mode
The following example shows how to change to the interface-range conguration 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, trac 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 the interface information:
