Users Guide

• 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.
Example (Bulk)
Dell(conf)#interface range gigbitethernet 1/1 - 1/11, tengigabitethernet
3/3, gigbitethernet 3/10
% Warning: Non-existing ports (not configured) are ignored by
interface-range
Example (Multiple
Ports)
Dell(conf)#interface range gigabitethernet 2/10 - 2/23, gigabitethernet
2/12 - 2/17
Dell(conf-if-range-gi-2/10-2/23)#
Example
(Overlapping Ports)
Dell(conf)#interface range gigabitethernet 2/3 - 2/11, gigabitethernet 2/3
- 2/23
Dell(conf-if-range-gi-2/3-2/23)#
Usage Information
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 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 and port-
channel only those respective interfaces should be congured in a particular range.
Example (Single
Range)
This example shows a single range bulk conguration.
Dell(config)# interface range gigabitethernet 5/3 - 23
Dell(config-if-range-gi-5/3-5/23)# no shutdown
Dell(config-if-range-gi-5/3-5/23)#
Example (Multiple
Range)
This example shows how to use commas to add dierent interface types to the range enabling all Gigabit
Ethernet interfaces in the range 5/1 to 5/23 and both Gigabit Ethernet interfaces 1/1 and 1/2.
Dell(config-if)# interface range gigabitethernet 5/1 - 5/23,
gigabitethernet 1/1 - 1/2
Dell(config-if-range-gi-1/1-1/2,gi-5/1-5/23)# no shutdown
Dell(config-if-range-gi-1/1-1/2,gi-5/1-5/23)#
Example (Multiple
Range)
This example shows how to use commas to add VLAN and port-channel interfaces to the range.
Dell(config-if)# interface range gigabitethernet 5/1 - 5/23,
gigabitethernet 1/1 – 1/2,
Vlan 2–100, Port 1–25
Dell(config-if-range-gi-1/1-1/2,gi-5/1-5/23,vl-2-100,po-1-25)# no shutdown
Dell(config-if-range)#
