Chapter 11 Configuring Interface Characteristics

Using Interface Configuration Mode

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:

When using the interface range global configuration command, note these guidelines:

Valid entries for port-range:

vlan vlan-ID - vlan-ID, where the VLAN ID is 1 to 4094

gigabitethernet module/{first port} - {last port}, where the module is always 0 (for
nonstacking-capable switches)

gigabitethernet stack member/module/{first port} - {last port}, where the module is always 0
(for stacking-capable switches)

tengigabitethernet module/{first port} - {last port}, where the module is always 0 (for
nonstacking-capable switches)

tengigabitethernet stack member/module/{first port} - {last port}, where the module is always
0 (for stacking-capable switches)

Command

Purpose

Step 1

configure terminal

Enter global configuration mode.

Step 2

interface range {port-range | macro
macro_name}

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

“Configuring and Using

Interface Range Macros” section on page 11-11

.

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.

Step 3

Use the normal configuration commands to apply the configuration
parameters to all interfaces in the range. Each command is executed
as it is entered.

Step 4

end

Return to privileged EXEC mode.

Step 5

show interfaces [interface-id]

Verify the configuration of the interfaces in the range.

Step 6

copy running-config startup-config

(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
