Usage
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 (Bulk)
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 (Multiple
Ports)
FTOS(conf)#interface range gi 2/0 - 23, gi 2/1 - 10
FTOS(conf-if-range-gi-2/0-23#
Example
(Overlapping
Ports)
FTOS(conf)#interface range gi 2/1 - 11, gi 2/1 - 23
FTOS(conf-if-range-gi-2/1-23#
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 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.
