Configuring Ethernet Interfaces
port-channel port-channel-number - port-channel-number, where port-channel-number is
from 1 to 6.
You must add a space between the interface numbers and the hyphen when entering an
interface-range. For example, fastethernet 0/1
- 5 is a valid range; fastethernet 0/1-5 is not a valid
range.
The VLAN interfaces must have been configured with the interface vlan command. The show
running-config privileged EXEC command output shows the configured VLAN interfaces. VLAN
interfaces that do not appear by using the show running-config command cannot be used as
interface-ranges.
All interfaces in a range must be the same type; that is, all Fast Ethernet ports, all Gigabit Ethernet
ports, all EtherChannel ports, or all VLANs, but you can combine multiple interface types in a
macro.
This example shows how to define an interface-range macro named enet_list to select Fast Ethernet
ports
1 to 4 and to verify the macro configuration:
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# define interface-range enet_list fastethernet0/1 - 4
Switch(config)# end
Switch# show running-config | include define
define interface-range enet_list FastEthernet0/1 - 4
This example shows how to create a multiple-interface macro named macro1:
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# define interface-range macro1 gigabitethernet0/1 - 2, fastethernet0/5 - 7
Switch(config)# end
Switch#
This example shows how to enter interface range configuration mode for the interface-range macro
enet_list:
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# interface range macro enet_list
Switch(config-if-range)#
This example shows how to delete the interface-range macro enet_list and to verify that it has been
deleted.
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# no define interface-range enet_list
Switch# show run | include define
Configuring Ethernet Interfaces
The switch supports these interface types:
Physical ports—Switch ports, including access and trunk ports
Port channels—EtherChannel of interfaces
VLANs
These sections describe the default interface configuration and the optional features that you can
configure on most physical interfaces:
