Parameters
interface-list: Specifies a space-separated list of up to five interface items. Each item specifies an interface
by its type and number or a range of interfaces in the form of interface-type interface-number1 to
interface-type interface-number2. When you specify the to keyword, the interfaces before and after the
to keyword must be on the same interface card or subcard. The last-tier value of interface-number1 must
not be greater than interface-number2. The values of the other tiers of interface-number1 must be the
same as interface-number2.
Usage guidelines
Use the command to enter interface range view to bulk configure multiple interfaces with the same
feature instead of configuring them one by one. For example, run the shutdown command in interface
range view to shut down a range of interfaces.
In interface range view, only the commands supported by the first interface are available. The first
interface is specified with the interface range command. To view the commands supported by the first
interface in the interface range, enter the interface range view and enter a question mark (?) at the
interface range prompt.
After a command is executed in interface range view, one of the following situations might occur:
The system displays an error message and stays in interface range view. It means that the execution
•
failed on member interfaces in the interface range.
If the execution failed on the first member interface in the interface range, the command is not
executed on any member interfaces.
If the execution failed on non-first member interfaces, the command takes effect on the other
member interfaces.
The system returns to system view. It means that:
•
The command is supported in both system view and interface view.
The execution failed on a member interface in interface range view and succeeded in system
view.
The command is not executed on the subsequent member interfaces.
You can use the display this command to verify the configuration in interface view of each member
interface. In addition, if the configuration in system view is not needed, use the undo form of the
command to remove the configuration.
To verify the configuration of the first interface in the interface range, execute the display this command
in interface range view.
When you bulk configure interfaces, follow these guidelines:
You cannot enter the view of some interfaces by using the interface interface-type
•
{ interface-number | interface-number.subnumber } command. Do not configure any of these
interfaces as the first interface in the interface range.
•
Do not assign both an aggregate interface and any of its member interfaces to an interface range.
Some commands, after being executed on both an aggregate interface and its member interfaces,
can break up the aggregation.
No limit is set on the maximum number of interfaces in an interface range. The more interfaces in
•
an interface range, the longer the command execution time.
