Configuring A Range Of Interfaces - Cisco WS-C2960-24LC-S Software Configuration Manual

Using Interface Configuration Mode
After you configure an interface, verify its status by using the show privileged EXEC commands listed
Step 4
in the
Enter the show interfaces privileged EXEC command to see a list of all interfaces on or configured for
the switch. A report is provided for each interface that the device supports or for the specified interface.

Configuring a Range of Interfaces

You can use the interface range global configuration command to configure multiple interfaces with the
same configuration parameters. When you enter the interface-range configuration mode, all command
parameters that you enter are attributed to all interfaces within that range until you exit this mode.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure a range of interfaces with the
same parameters:
Command
Step 1 configure terminal
Step 2
interface range {port-range | macro
macro_name}
Step 3
Step 4
end
Step 5 show interfaces [interface-id]
Step 6 copy running-config startup-config
When using the interface range global configuration command, note these guidelines:

Valid entries for port-range:
– vlan vlan-ID, where the VLAN ID is 1 to 4094
Although the command-line interface shows options to set multiple VLANs, these
Note
options are not supported.
– fastethernet module/{first port} - {last port}, where the module is always 0
Purpose
Enter global configuration mode.
Specify the range of interfaces (VLANs or physical ports) to be
configured, and enter interface-range configuration mode.
• You can use the interface range command to configure up to five
port ranges or a previously defined macro.
• The macro variable is explained in the
Interface Range Macros" section on page
In a comma-separated port-range, you must enter the interface
•
type for each entry and enter spaces before and after the comma.
• In a hyphen-separated port-range, you do not need to re-enter the
interface type, but you must enter a space before the hyphen.
Use the normal configuration commands to apply the configuration
parameters to all interfaces in the range. Each command is executed
as it is entered.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify the configuration of the interfaces in the range.
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
