interface-type interface-number1 to interface-type interface-number2. The
start interface number must be identical to or lower than the end interface number.
Usage guidelines
Use this command to bulk configure multiple interfaces with the same feature instead of configuring
them one by one. For example, execute the
shutdown command in interface range view to shut
down a range of interfaces.
The interface range created by using this command is not saved to the running configuration. You
cannot use the interface range repeatedly. To create an interface range that can be used repeatedly,
use the
interface range name command.
In interface range view, only the commands supported by the first interface in the specified interface
list (alphabetically sorted) are available for configuration. To view available commands, enter a
question mark (?) in interface range view.
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 one or multiple member interfaces.
{ If the execution failed on the first member interface, the command is not executed on any
member interfaces.
{ If the execution failed on a non-first member interface, the command takes effect on the
remaining 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 member interface, you can execute the
display this
command in interface range view.
When you bulk configure interfaces, follow these guidelines:
• Before you configure an interface as the first interface in an interface range, make sure you can
enter the view of the interface by using the
interface interface-type
interface-number command.
• 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.
• Understand that the more interfaces you specify, the longer the command execution time.
Examples
# Shut down interfaces GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 through GigabitEthernet 1/0/5.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface range gigabitethernet 1/0/1 to gigabitethernet 1/0/5
[Sysname-if-range] shutdown
interface range name
Use interface range name name interface interface-list to create a named interface
range and enter the interface range view.
