Exclude a Smaller Port Range

The following is an example show how the smaller of two port ranges is omitted in the interface-range
prompt.
Example of the Interface-Range Prompt for Multiple Port Ranges
Dell(conf)#interface range tengigabitethernet 2/0 - 23 , tengigab 2/1 - 10
Dell(conf-if-range-te-2/0-23)#

Overlap Port Ranges

The following is an example showing how the interface-range prompt extends a port range from the
smallest start port number to the largest end port number when port ranges overlap. handles overlapping
port ranges.
Example of the Interface-Range Prompt for Overlapping Port Ranges
Dell(conf)#inte ra tengig 2/1 - 11 , tengig 2/1 - 23
Dell(conf-if-range-te-2/1-23)#

Commas

The following is an example of how to use commas to add different interface types to the range, enabling
all Gigabit Ethernet interfaces in the range 5/1 to 5/23 and both Ten Gigabit Ethernet interfaces 1/1 and
1/2.
Example of Multiple-Range Bulk Configuration Gigabit Ethernet and Ten-Gigabit Ethernet
Dell(conf-if)# interface range tengigabitethernet 5/1 - 23, tengigabitethernet
1/1 - 2
Dell(conf-if-range-te-5/1-23)# no shutdown
Dell(conf-if-range-te-5/1-23)#

Add Ranges

The following example shows how to use commas to add VLAN and port-channel interfaces to the
range.
Example of Multiple-Range Bulk Configuration with VLAN and Port-channel
Dell(conf-ifrange-te-5/1-23-te-1/1-2)# interface range Vlan 2 – 100 , Port 1 –
25
Dell(conf-if-range-te-5/1-23-te-1/1-2-vl-2-100-po-1-25)# no shutdown
Dell(conf-if-range)#
Defining Interface Range Macros
You can define an interface-range macro to automatically select a range of interfaces for configuration.
Before you can use the macro keyword in the interface-range macro command string, define the
macro.
