Modular Switch Numerical Ranges; Names; Symbols - Extreme Networks ExtremeWare XOS Guide Manual

NOTE
If you use the same name across categories (for example, STPD and VLAN names), Extreme Networks recommends
that you specify the identifying keyword as well as the actual name. If you do not use the keyword, the system may
return an error message.

Modular Switch Numerical Ranges

Commands that require you to enter one or more port numbers on a modular switch use the parameter
(or
<port_list> <ports>
example,
port 3:1
A < can be a range of numbers. For example,
port_list>
port 3:1-3:3 or port 3:1-3
You can add additional slot and port numbers to the list, separated by a comma:
port 3:1,4:8,6:10
You can specify all ports on a particular slot. For example,
port 3:*
indicates all ports on slot 3.
You can specify a range of slots and ports. For example,
port 2:3-4:5
indicates slot 2, port 3 through slot 4, port 5.

Names

All named components within a category of the switch configuration, such as VLAN, must have a
unique name. Names can be re-used across categories, however. Names must begin with an alphabetical
character and cannot contain any spaces. The maximum length for a name is 32 characters. Names may
contain alphanumeric characters and underscores (_) and cannot be keywords, such as vlan, stp, and so
on.
NOTE
If you use the same name across categories (for example, STPD and VLAN names), Extreme Networks recommends
that you specify the identifying keyword as well as the actual name. If you do not use the keyword, the system may
return an error message.

Symbols

You may see a variety of symbols shown as part of the command syntax. These symbols explain how to
enter the command, and you do not type them as part of the command itself.
