Administrator Guide

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 (If atleast
one port is
configured)
DellEMC(conf)# interface range tengigbitethernet 1/1 - 1/11, fortyGigE 3/50,
tengigbitethernet 3/10
% Warning: Non-existing ports (not configured) are ignored by
interface-range
Example (If no
ports are
configured within
the specified
interface range)
DellEMC(conf)# interface range tengigbitethernet 1/1 - 1/11, fortyGigE 3/50,
tengigbitethernet 3/10
% Error: No port is configured in interface range
Example
(Configuration
Terminal Batch
Mode)
DellEMC(conf-b)#interface range te 1/1-4
DellEMC(conf-if-range-te-1/1-4)#
Example (Multiple
Ports)
DellEMC(conf)# interface range tengigabitethernet 2/10 - 2/23,
tengigabitethernet 2/12 - 2/17
DellEMC(conf-if-range-te-2/10-2/23)#
Example
(Overlapping
Ports)
DellEMC(conf)# interface range tengigabitethernet 2/3 - 2/11,
tengigabitethernet 2/3 - 2/23
DellEMC(conf-if-range-te-2/3-2/23)#
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 and port-
channel only those respective interfaces should be configured in a particular range.
Example (Single
Range)
This example shows a single range bulk configuration.
DellEMC(config)# interface range tengigabitethernet 5/3 - 5/23
DellEMC(config-if-range-te-5/3-5/23)# no shutdown
DellEMC(config-if-range-te-5/3-5/23)#
Example (Multiple
Range)
This example shows how to use commas to add different interface types to a range of interfaces.
DellEMC(config-if)# interface range tengigabitethernet 5/1 - 5/23,
tengigabitethernet 1/1 - 1/2
DellEMC(config-if-range-te-1/1-1/2,te-5/1-5/23)# no shutdown
DellEMC(config-if-range-te-1/1-1/2,te-5/1-5/23)#
Example (Multiple
Range)
This example shows how to use commas to add VLAN and port-channel interfaces to the range.
DellEMC(config-if)# interface range tengigabitethernet 5/1 - 1/23,
tengigabitethernet 1/1 – 1/2,
Vlan 2–100, Port 1–25
DellEMC(config-if-range-te-1/1-1/2,te-5/1-5/23,vl-2-100,po-1-25)# no shutdown
DellEMC(config-if-range)#
