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
(Figure 20-7).
• 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 (Figure 20-8).
• If overlapping port ranges are specified, the port range is extended to the smallest start port and the
biggest end port (Figure 20-9).
Example
Figure 20-7. Bulk Configuration 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
Figure 20-8. Interface Range prompt with Multiple Ports
FTOS(conf)#interface range gi 2/0 - 23 , gi 2/1 - 10
FTOS(conf-if-range-gi-2/0-23#
Example

FTOS(conf)#interface range gi 2/1 - 11 , gi 2/1 - 23

Enter the keyword interface range and one of the interfaces — slot/port, port-channel or
VLAN number. Select the range of interfaces for bulk configuration. You can enter up to six
comma separated ranges—spaces are not required between the commas. Comma-separated
ranges can include VLANs, port-channels and physical interfaces.
Slot/Port information must contain a space before and after the dash. For example,
interface
range gigabitethernet 0/1 - 5
is valid; interface range gigabitethernet 0/1-5 is not
valid.
• For a 1-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword
GigabitEthernet followed by the
slot/port information.
• For a port channel interface, enter the keyword
port-channel followed by a number:
S-Series Range: 1-128
Range: 1 to 32 for EtherScale, 1 to 255 for TeraScale and ExaScale
• 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.
• For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword
fortyGigE followed by the slot/
port information.
