interface range Command

To save time, you can use the interface range command to configure multiple
E1 or T1 interfaces at the same time. You can configure a range of contiguous
interfaces, or you can configure multiple noncontiguous interfaces. The inter-
faces can be on different modules, but they must all be the same type of
interface—either E1 or T1 interfaces.
To configure multiple E1 or T1 interfaces, move to the global configuration
mode context and enter:
Syntax: interface range [e1 | t1] [<slot/port-port> | <slot/port>, <slot/port>]
Specify e1 or t1, depending on the type of interfaces you want to configure.
To configure a range of contiguous interfaces, use the syntax <slot/port-
port>. Replace the first slot/port with the slot and port number for the first
interface in the range, followed by a hyphen. Then, replace the second port
with the port for last interface in the range.
To configure noncontiguous interfaces, use the syntax <slot/port>, <slot/
port>. Replace the first <slot/port> with the slot and port for an interface,
followed by a comma. Then replace the second <slot/port> with the slot and
port for another noncontiguous interface.
You can include both a range of contiguous interfaces and separate noncon-
tiguous interfaces in the same command.
After you enter the interface range command, you are moved to the config-
uration context for all of the interfaces you specified. When you enter config-
uration commands, your changes are applied to all of these interfaces.
Examples. To configure the first seven interfaces of an octal E1 module that
is installed in slot 3, enter:
ProCurve(config)# interface range e1 3/1-7
The context indicates that you have entered the configuration mode context
for all seven E1 interfaces:
ProCurve(config-e1 3/1-7)#
To specify noncontiguous E1 ports for configuration, enter:
ProCurve(config)# interface range e1 3/2, 3/6, 3/8
