Service Manual
• The interface range prompt includes interface types with slot/port[/subport] information for valid
interfaces. The prompt allows for a maximum of 32 characters. If the bulk conguration 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 specied, the port range is extended to the smallest start port and the
biggest end port.
Example (Bulk)
Dell(conf)#interface range tengigbitethernet 2/10/1 - 2/11/2, fortyGigbE
3/3, tengigbitethernet 3/10/1
% Warning: Non-existing ports (not configured) are ignored by
interface-range
Example (Multiple
Ports)
Dell(conf)#interface range tengigabitethernet 2/10/1 - 2/20/3,
tengigabitethernet 2/11/2 - 2/14/4
Dell(conf-if-range-te-2/10/1-2/20/3)#
Example
(Overlapping Ports)
Dell(conf)#interface range tengigabitethernet 2/1/1 - 2/10/1,
tengigabitethernet 2/1/1 - 2/20/3
Dell(conf-if-range-te-2/1/1-2/20/3)#
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 conguration 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 congured. To congure commands specic to VLAN and port-
channel only those respective interfaces should be congured in a particular range.
Example (Single
Range)
This example shows a single range bulk conguration.
Dell(config)# interface range tengigabitethernet 5/1/1 - 5/7/3
Dell(config-if-range-te-5/1/1-5/7/3)# no shutdown
Dell(config-if-range-te-5/1/1-5/7/3)#
Example (Multiple
Range)
This example shows how to use commas to add dierent interface types to the range enabling all Tengigabit
Ethernet interfaces in the range 5/1/1 to 5/20/3 and both Ten-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces 1/1/1 and 1/2/1.
Dell(config-if)# interface range tengigabitethernet 5/1/1 - 5/20/3,
tengigabitethernet 1/1/1 - 1/2/1
Dell(config-if-range-te-1/1/1-1/2/1,te-5/1/1-5/20/3)# 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 5/1/1 -5/20/3,
tengigabitethernet 1/1/1 –1/2/1,
Vlan 2–100, Port 1–25
Dell(config-if-range-te-1/1/1-1/2/1,te-5/1/1-5/23/1,vl-2-100,po-1-25)# no
shutdown
Dell(config-if-range)#
