Defining Interface Range Macros; Define The Interface Range - Dell Z9000 Configuration Manual

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 gi 2/1 - 11 , gi 2/1 - 23
Dell(conf-if-range-gi-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 Adding Interface Ranges
Dell(config-if)# interface range gigabitethernet 5/1 - 23, tengigabitethernet
1/1 - 2
Dell(config-if-range-gi-5/1-23)# no shutdown
Dell(config-if-range-gi-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 Adding VLAN and Port-Channel Interface Ranges
Dell(config-ifrange-gi-5/1-23-te-1/1-2)# interface range Vlan 2 – 100 , Port 1
– 25
Dell(config-if-range-gi-5/1-23-te-1/1-2-so-5/1-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 gigabitethernet 5/1 - 4
