Using Interface Range Command in Juniper: Configure Multiple Interfaces

In this blog, we discuss the interface range commands in Juniper. Cisco and Juniper both have CLI option to configure multiple interfaces within single line item.

Below are some of ways to define members through interface range feature as below:

For Port Range 1 to 3

Let say the port range is from 1 to 3.

# set interface interface-range SCOPE member-range ge-0/0/0 to ge-0/0/3
# set interface interface-range SCOPE member “ge-0/0/[0-3]”
# set interface interface-range SCOPE member “ge-0/0/0”
# set interface interface-range SCOPE member “ge-0/0/1”
# set interface interface-range SCOPE member “ge-0/0/2”
# set interface interface-range SCOPE member “ge-0/0/3”

List of Interface Range Commands in Juniper

Some examples where we can use interface range command in Juniper are as below:

Disable Ports

# set interface interface-range SCOPE member-range ge-0/0/0 to ge-0/0/3
# set interface interface-range SCOPE disable

Add VLAN to Ports

# set interfaces interface-range SCOPE unit 0 family ethernet-switching vlan members vlan20
# set interface interface-range SCOPE member-range ge-0/0/0 to ge-0/0/3

By default, interface-range is not available to configure in the CLI where the interface statement is available. The following locations are supported; however, some of the hierarchies shown in this list are product specific:

protocols dot1x authentication interface
protocols dvmrp interface
protocols oam ethernet lmi interface
