How to create/delete multiple VLANs in a single command?

Question

If I want to create 3 VLANs, I've to do it one by one like this.

conf t
vlan 2
vlan 3
vlan 4

Same thing goes with deletion.

conf t
no vlan 2
no vlan 3
no vlan 4

Is there a way to do it in a single line? Probably something like

conf t
vlan 2 3 4

!or

conf t
no vlan 2 3 4

!or

conf t
vlan 2, 3, 4

!or

conf t
no vlan 2, 3, 4

!or

conf t
vlan 2-4

!or

conf t
no vlan 2-4

Anyway I have tested those, but didn't work. Basically, that's the idea. If the question is not clear, please let me know.

Answer 1

I use the below all the time on Cisco Catalyst switches:

!
conf t
!
vlan 2-10
!
no vlan 2-10
!
vlan 2,3,4,5,6,7
!
no vlan 2,3,4,5,6,7
!

Answer 2

Actually creating vlans in range is not a good practice and this is not feasible too..

If we are creating a vlan means bottom to it we need to name the vlan for example

Switch (config)# vlan 10 Switch(configure)₹ name finances

If you wants to name vlan then vlans has to be created manually one by one ..

If scenario where naming is not mandatory then you can fallow as below

Switch (config)# vlan 10,20,30,40,50

Switch config) no vlan 10,20,30,40,50

Answer 3

You might wanna try the following command:

config t delete vlan.dat
