Command Line Interface Shortcuts

The following shortcuts allow you to enter commands quickly and easily.

CLI List and Range Inputs

For VLAN and port commands that allow an individual item to be selected from within a numeric

range, lists and ranges of items can now be specified. For example, the vlan command permits the

following options:

The numbers in a range must be separated by a dash: <start of range>-<end of range>

Multiple ranges or list items are permitted using a comma: <range or item 1>,<range or item 2>

Do not use spaces within list and range specifications.

Ranges can also be used to apply the same command option to multiple items. For example, to

access multiple ports with one command:

Note – Port ranges accept only port numbers, not port aliases.

Command Abbreviation

Most commands can be abbreviated by entering the first characters which distinguish the command

from the others in the same mode. For example, consider the following full command and a valid

abbreviation:

# vlan 1,3,4094 (access VLANs 1, 3, and 4094)

# vlan 1-20 (access VLANs 1 through 20)

# vlan 1-5,90-99,4090-4094 (access multiple ranges)

# vlan 1-5,19,20,4090-4094 (access a mix of lists and ranges)

# interface port 1-4 (Access ports 1 though 4)
