Bulk configuring interfaces You can enter interface range view to bulk configure multiple interfaces with the same feature instead of configuring them one by one. For example, you can perform the shutdown command in interface range view to shut down a range of interfaces. Failure of applying a command on one member interface does not affect the application of the command on the other member interfaces. If applying a command on one member interface fails, the system displays an error message and continues with the next member interface. Configuration guidelines When you bulk configure interfaces in interface range view, follow these restrictions and guidelines: • In interface range view, only the commands supported by the first interface are available. • Do not assign an aggregate interface and any of its member interfaces to an interface range at the same time. Some commands, after being executed on both an aggregate interface and its member interfaces, can break up the aggregation. • No limit is set on the maximum number of interfaces in an interface range. The more interfaces in an interface range, the longer the command execution time. Configuration procedure To bulk configure interfaces: Step 1. Enter system view.

Bulk configuring interfaces
You can enter interface range view to bulk configure multiple interfaces with the same feature instead of
configuring them one by one. For example, you can perform the
shutdown
command in interface range
view to shut down a range of interfaces.
Failure of applying a command on one member interface does not affect the application of the command
on the other member interfaces. If applying a command on one member interface fails, the system
displays an error message and continues with the next member interface.
Configuration guidelines
When you bulk configure interfaces in interface range view, follow these restrictions and guidelines:
•
In interface range view, only the commands supported by the first interface are available.
•
Do not assign an aggregate interface and any of its member interfaces to an interface range at the
same time. Some commands, after being executed on both an aggregate interface and its member
interfaces, can break up the aggregation.
•
No limit is set on the maximum number of interfaces in an interface range. The more interfaces in
an interface range, the longer the command execution time.
Configuration procedure
To bulk configure interfaces:

2.
Enter interface range

Approach 1:
interface range
{
interface-type

{
interface-type interface-number
[
to

] }
&<1-5> ]
Use either approach.
In approach 2, you assign a name to an
interface range and can specify this
name rather than the interface range to
enter the interface range view.
3.
Display commands
available for the first
interface in the
interface range.
Enter ?
