When I do a show run the output is not displayed as desired. Most of the settings are displayed per interface instead of the interface range command. For example:
interface ethernet e1
switchport general pvid *
exit
interface ethernet e2
switchport general pvid *
exit
interface ethernet e3
switchport general pvid *
exit
interface ethernet e5
switchport general pvid *
exit
interface ethernet e6
switchport general pvid *
etc. This also happens with the these command:
- voice vlan enable
- lldp notifications enable
- lldp optional-tlv port-desc sys-name sys-desc sys-cap 802.3-mac-phy
- lldp med enable network-policy location poe-pse inventory
However some settings are doing much better:
interface range ethernet e(1-24)
lldp med network-policy add 1
interface range ethernet e(1-24)
spanning-tree bpduguard
interface range ethernet e(1-24)
spanning-tree portfast
Alle the settings are configured with the interface range command, but some settings will show up for each interface which is sometimes a bit annoying when you having a hard time troubleshooting a problem…
This occurs on a multiple 3524P/48P switches with almost the latest firmware: 2.0.0.52 (it will happen on earlier firmware releases as well)
Do other users of these switches have the same issue? I was hoping Dell would fix this in a firmware update but since the life cycle of development time of these switches is over I don't think they will :)
I am starting this thread to make sure that this is expected behavior (for these switches), maybe I’ll contact Dell support later when this case is stronger…
