Slot/Port information must contain a space before and after the dash. For
example, interface range tengigabitethernet 0/1 - 5 is valid;
interface range tengigabitethernet 0/1-5 is not valid.
For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword
TenGigabitEthernet followed by the slot/port information.
For a VLAN, enter the keyword vlan followed by a number from 1 to 4094.
Defaults none

Usage Information When creating an interface range, interfaces appear in the order they are entered; they are not sorted. The
command veries that interfaces are present (physical) or congured (logical). Important things to
remember:
Bulk conguration is created if at least one interface is valid.
Non-existing interfaces are excluded from the bulk conguration 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 conguration 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 specied, 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 vlan tagged
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 cannot be used
with the bulk conguration feature of the interface range command. You cannot create virtual
interfaces (VLAN, Port-channel) using the interface range command.
NOTE: If a range has VLAN, physical, and port-channel interfaces, only commands related to
physical interfaces can be bulk congured. To congure commands specic to VLAN or port-
channel, only those respective interfaces should be congured in a particular range.
