FTOS Configuration Guide for the C-Series - Force10 Networks

The interface range prompt offers the interface (with slot and port information) for valid interfaces. The
maximum size of an interface range prompt is 32. If the prompt size exceeds this maximum, it displays (...)
at the end of the output.
Note: Non-existing interfaces are excluded from interface range prompt. In the following
example, Tengigabit 3/0 and VLAN 1000 do not exist.
Note: When creating an interface range, interfaces appear in the order they were entered and
are not sorted.
The show range command is available under interface range mode. This command allows you to display
all interfaces that have been validated under the interface range context.
The show configuration command is also available under the interface range mode. This command allows
you to display the running configuration only for interfaces that are part of interface range.
Bulk Configuration Examples
The following are examples of using the interface range command for bulk configuration:
• Creating a single-range
• Creating a multiple-range
• Excluding duplicate entries
• Excluding a smaller port range
• Overlapping port ranges
• Using commas
• Adding ranges
Creating a single-range
Figure 167 Creating a Single-Range Bulk Configuration
Force10(config)# interface range gigabitethernet 5/1 - 23
Force10(config-if-range-gi-5/1-23)# no shutdown
Force10(config-if-range-gi-5/1-23)#
Creating a multiple-range
Figure 168 Creating a Multiple-Range Prompt
Force10(conf)#interface range tengigabitethernet 3/0 , gigabitethernet 2/1 - 47 , vlan 1000 , sonet 5/0
