Understanding the Command Syntax
ExtremeWare XOS 10.1 Concepts Guide 23
configure engineering delete port 1:3,4:6
Similarly, on the stand-alone switch, instead of entering the command
configure vlan engineering delete port 1-3,6
you could enter the following shortcut:
configure engineering delete port 1-3,6
Although it is helpful to have unique names for system components, this is not a requirement. If
ExtremeWare XOS encounters any ambiguity in the components within your command, it generates a
message requesting that you clarify the object you specified.
Modular Switch Numerical Ranges
Commands that require you to enter one or more port numbers on a modular switch use the parameter
<portlist> in the syntax. A <portlist> can be one port on a particular slot. For example,
port 3:1
A <portlist> can be a range of numbers. For example,
port 3:1-3:3
You can add additional slot and port numbers to the list, separated by a comma:
port 3:1,4:8,6:10
You can specify all ports on a particular slot. For example,
port 3:*
indicates all ports on slot 3.
You can specify a range of slots and ports. For example,
port 2:3-4:5
indicates slot 2, port 3 through slot 4, port 5.
Stand-alone Switch Numerical Ranges
Commands that require you to enter one or more port numbers on a stand-alone switch use the
parameter
<portlist> in the syntax. A portlist can be a range of numbers, for example:
port 1-3
You can add additional port numbers to the list, separated by a comma:
port 1-3,6,8
Names
All named components within a category of the switch configuration, such as VLAN, must have a
unique name. Names can be re-used across categories, however. Names must begin with an alphabetical
character and cannot contain any spaces. The maximum length for a name is 32 characters. Names may
contain alphanumeric characters and underscores (_) and cannot be keywords, such as vlan, stp, and so
on.
