Information
When creating an interface range, interfaces appear in the order they are entered; they are not sorted.
The command verifies that interfaces are present (physical) or configured (logical). Important things to
remember:
• Bulk configuration is created if at least one interface is valid.
• Non-existing interfaces are excluded from the bulk configuration with a warning message.
• The interface range prompt includes interface types with slot/port information for valid interfaces.
The prompt allows for a maximum of 32 characters. If the bulk configuration exceeds 32
characters, it is represented by an ellipsis ( ... ).
• 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.
Example 1
(Warning
Message)
FTOS(conf)#interface range so 2/0 - 1 , te 10/0 , gi 3/0 , fa 0/0
% Warning: Non-existing ports (not configured) are ignored by interface-range
Example 2
(Multiple Ports
Prompt)
FTOS(conf)#interface range gi 2/0 - 23 , gi 2/1 - 10
FTOS(conf-if-range-gi-2/0-23#
Example 3
(Overlapping
Port Ranges)
FTOS(conf)#interface range gi 2/1 - 11 , gi 2/1 - 23
FTOS(conf-if-range-gi-2/1-23#
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 example is an example of a single range bulk configuration.
Example 4
(Single Range Bulk
Configuration
)
FTOS(config)# interface range gigabitethernet 5/1 - 23
FTOS(config-if-range)# no shutdown
FTOS(config-if-range)#
Version 8.2.1.0 Support for 4093 VLANs on E-Series ExaScale. Prior releases supported 2094.
Version 8.1.1.0 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale
Version 7.6.1.0 Introduced on S-Series
Version 7.5.1.0 Introduced on C-Series
pre-Version 6.1.1.0 Introduced for E-Series
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.
