Commas
The following is an example of how to use commas to add different interface types to the range, enabling
all TenGigabitEthernet interfaces in the range 5/1/1 to 5/4/4 and both TenGigabitEthernet interfaces 1/1/1
and 1/1/2.
Example of Adding Interface Ranges
Dell(config-if)# interface range tengigabitethernet 5/1/1 - 5/4/4,
tengigabitethernet 1/1/1 - 1/1/2
Dell(config-if-range-te-5/1/1-5/4/4)# no shutdown
Add Ranges
The following example shows how to use commas to add VLAN and port-channel interfaces to the
range.
Example of Adding VLAN and Port-Channel Interface Ranges
Dell(config-if-range-te-1/1/1-1/1/2)# interface range Vlan 2 – 100 , Port 1 – 25
Dell(config-if-range-te-1/1/1-1/1/2-vl-2-100-po-1-25)# no shutdown
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.
To define an interface-range macro, use the following command.
• Defines the interface-range macro and saves it in the running configuration file.
CONFIGURATION mode
define interface-range macro_name {vlan vlan_ID - vlan_ID} |
{{gigabitethernet | tengigabitethernet | fortyGigE} slot/interface -
interface} [ , {vlan vlan_ID - vlan_ID} {{gigabitethernet |
tengigabitethernet | fortyGigE} slot/interface - interface}]
Define the Interface Range
The following example shows how to define an interface-range macro named “test” to select Fast
Ethernet interfaces 5/1 through 5/4.
Example of the define interface-range Command for Macros
Dell(config)# define interface-range test tengigabitethernet 5/1/1 - 5/4/1
Choosing an Interface-Range Macro
To use an interface-range macro, use the following command.
• Selects the interfaces range to be configured using the values saved in a named interface-range
macro.
