Add Ranges
The following example shows how to use commas to add VLAN and port-channel interfaces to the range.
Example of Multiple-Range Bulk Configuration with VLAN and Port-channel
Dell(conf-ifrange-te-5/1-23-te-1/1-2)# interface range Vlan 2 – 100 , Port 1 – 25
Dell(conf-if-range-te-5/1-23-te-1/1-2-vl-2-100-po-1-25)# no shutdown
Dell(conf-if-range)#
Defining Interface Range Macros
You can define an interface-range macro to automatically select a range of interfaces for configuration.
Before you can use the macro keyword in the interface-range macro command string, define the
macro.
To define an interface-range macro, use the following command.
• Defines the interface-range macro and saves it in the running configuration file.
CONFIGURATION mode
define interface-range macro_name {vlan vlan_ID - vlan_ID} |
{{tengigabitethernet | fortyGigE} slot/ interface - interface} [ , {vlan vlan_ID
- vlan_ID} {{tengigabitethernet | fortyGigE} slot/interface - interface}]
Define the Interface Range
The following example shows how to define an interface-range macro named “test” to select Fast Ethernet
interfaces 5/1 through 5/4.
Example of the define interface-range Command for Macros
Dell(config)# define interface-range test tengigabitethernet 5/1 - 4
Choosing an Interface-Range Macro
To use an interface-range macro, use the following command.
• Selects the interfaces range to be configured using the values saved in a named interface-range macro.
CONFIGURATION mode
interface range macro name
Example of Using a Macro to Change the Interface Range Configuration Mode
The following example shows how to change to the interface-range configuration mode using the interface-
range macro named “test.”
Dell(config)# interface range macro test
Dell(config-if)#
