interface range command does not work

[bobcal2000]

I have a 4507 running IOS v12.2.18.

I'm trying to change 17 slot 5 10/100 ports to 10Mb.

I'm in global config and type this command:

"interface range Fa5/1 -17"

This exact syntax in it the documentation. But, this command puts a ^ under the "1" in 17. If I use the "?" at the "1" in 5/1 it says to type <1-48> which would make the command interface range Fa5/117.

The help system is wrong and the command doesn't work. I talked to a friend and his 4507 running IOS v12.2.25 and it works. What's the deal?

It looks like you have a space before the hyphen. Try the command removing the space and see what happens.

Hello,

in addition to Rick's post, I just tried the command with the following syntax:

interface range FastEthernet_0/1_-_21

The underscores are spaces...can you try that ?

I'll try that, I'll let you know...

I tryed "_" as spaces that didn't work either. When I used spaces it erors with unrecognized command.

Thanks Anyway!

can you tell me what you did

My issue was that I didn't realize some ports were Ten Gig while the rest were Gig ports. e.g. "int range Te7/1-12" worked but not "int range Te7/1-48", since ports 13-48 were actually Gig ports.
