Defining Interface Range Macros; Define The Interface Range; Choosing An Interface-Range Macro - Dell S4048–ON Configuration Manual

Commas
The following is an example of how to use commas to add different interface types to a range of interfaces.
Example of Adding Interface Ranges
Dell(config-if)# interface range tengigabitethernet 5/1 - 23, tengigabitethernet 1/1 - 2
Dell(config-if-range-te-5/1-23,te1/1-2)# no shutdown
Dell(config-if-range-te-5/1-23,te1/1-2)#
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-1/1-1/2)# interface range Vlan 2 – 100 , Port 1 – 25
Dell(config-if-range-te-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 | {{tengigabitethernet | fortyGigE}
slot/port/[subport] - slot/port/[subport]}} [ , {vlan vlan_ID - vlan_ID | {{tengigabitethernet
| fortyGigE} slot/interfaceslot/port/[subport] - interfaceslot/port/[subport]}]

Define the Interface Range

The following example shows how to define an interface-range macro named "test" to select Ten Gigabit 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 - 5/4

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.
CONFIGURATION mode
interface range macro name
Example of Using a Macro to Change the Interface Range Configuration Mode
The following example shows how to change to the interface-range configuration mode using the interface-range macro named "test."
Dell(config)# interface range macro test
Dell(config-if)#
