Interface Bulk Configuration
When configuring a specific function (e.g., port shutdown) across multiple interfaces, individually entering each interface’s view and executing commands can become cumbersome. To simplify this process, the interface bulk configuration feature can be utilized to configure interfaces in batches, thereby reducing the configuration workload.
There is no upper limit to the number of interfaces that can be included in a bulk configuration, only constrained by system resources. However, if a significant number of interfaces are involved, executing commands within the bulk interface configuration view might take longer. When performing bulk interface configuration, if the interfaces listed already possess existing configurations, attempting to enter the bulk configuration view will result in failure. In such cases, the interface list needs to be reselected.
Once inside the bulk interface configuration view, you can utilize the ”?” command to explore the supported command lines for bulk configuration.
