Example (Multiple 
Ports)
Dell(conf)# interface range tengigabitethernet 1/1/1/1 - 1/1/4/3, 
tengigabitethernet 1/1/3/2 - 1/1/4/1
Dell(conf-if-range-te-1/1/1/1-1/1/4/3)#
Example 
(Overlapping Ports)
Dell(conf)# interface range tengigabitethernet 1/1/1/1 - 1/1/3/1, 
tengigabitethernet 1/1/1/1 - 1/1/4/3
Dell(conf-if-range-te-1/1/1/1-1/1/4/3)#
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 1/1/1/1 - 1/1/7/3
Dell(config-if-range-te-1/1/1/1-1/1/7/3)# no shutdown
Example (Multiple 
Range)
This example shows how to use commas to add dierent interface types to a range of interfaces.
Dell(config-if)# interface range tengigabitethernet 1/1/1/1 - 1/1/2/3, 
hundredGigE 1/24 - 1/29
Dell(config-if-range-te-1/1/1/1-1/1/2/3,hu-1/24-1/29)# no shutdown
