HP MSR2000/3000/4000 Router Series Interface Command Reference

2
Parameters
interface-list: Specifies an interface list in the format of interface-list = { interface-type interface-number
[ to interface-type interface-number ] }&<1-5>. The interface-type interface-number argument specifies
an interface by its type and number. &<1-5> indicates that you can specify up to five interfaces or
interface lists. When you specify the to keyword in interface-type interface-number1 to interface-type
interface-number2, the interfaces before and after the to keyword must be on the same interface card or
subcard. The last-tier value of the interface number before to must not be greater than the one after to,
and the values of the other tiers of the interface number before to must be the same as the one after to.
Usage guidelines
Use this command to enter interface range view to bulk configure multiple interfaces with the same
feature instead of configuring them one by one. For example, run the shutdown command in interface
range view to shut down a range of interfaces.
In interface range view, only the commands supported by the first interface are available. The first
interface is specified with the interface range command. To view these commands in the interface range,
enter the interface range view, and then enter ? at the prompt.
If the application of a command fails on one member interface, the application of the command on the
other member interfaces is not affected. In this case, the system displays an error message and continues
with the next member interface.
To verify the configuration of the first interface in the interface range, execute the display this command
in interface range view.
To bulk configure interfaces, follow these guidelines:
• If you cannot enter the view of an interface by using the interface interface-type { interface-number
| interface-number.subnumber } command, for example, BRI 1/1/1:1, do not configure the
interface as the first interface in the interface range.
• No limit is set on the maximum number of interfaces in an interface range. The more interfaces in
an interface range, the longer the command execution time.
Examples
# Shut down interfaces Ethernet 1/1 through Ethernet 1/24, VLAN interface 2, and Serial 7/1 through
Serial 7/7.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface range ethernet 1/1 to ethernet 1/24 vlan-interface 2 serial 7/1 to
serial 7/7
[Sysname-if-range] shutdown
interface range name
Use interface range name name interface interface-list to create an interface range, configure a name
for the interface range, and enter the interface range view.
Use interface range name name without the interface keyword to enter the view of an interface range
with the specified name.
Use undo interface range name to delete the interface range with the specified name.
Syntax
interface range name name [ interface interface-list ]
undo interface range name name
