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.

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 can not 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.
The following figure is an example of a single range bulk configuration.
Example
Figure 23-12. Single Range Bulk Configuration
The following figure shows how to use commas to add different interface types to the range enabling
all Gigabit Ethernet interfaces in the range 5/1 to 5/23 and both Ten Gigabit Ethernet interfaces 1/1 and
1/2.

Note: If a range has VLAN, physical, port-channel, and SONET interfaces, only commands
related to physical interfaces can be bulk configured. To configure commands specific to VLAN,
port-channel or SONET, only those respective interfaces should be configured in a particular
range.
