is there easier way to configure trunk port in extreme switch

I'm just starting to use extreme switch, and the switch type is X450a-48t, and SW version is 12.0.3.16. when I configure the trunk port in the switch, i found that it's not convenient as Cisco Switch I used before. for example, if you configure trunk port,

in extreme switch:
create vlan tag_test
config vlan tag_test tag 100
config vlan tag_test add port 2 tagged

in cisco switch:
interface gi-0/2
switchport trunk allowed vlan add 1,100

if the vlans i want to tag to port is few, then i think this way is acceptable, but if there are many vlans which need to be tagged, then how should i perform it? for example, i want vlan 1-100 tagged in port 2, in cisco switch, it's very easy to realize by switchport trunk allowed vlan add 1-100. but in extreme switch, should i create 100 vlans one by one and add to port 2? is it inconvenient? but i'm newbie for the extreme, so maybe there is easier way to create trunk port which i don't know. who can help me about it? thanks in advance.

best regards.

I think, there is no such easier way to do it. It's particularity of XOS CLI.
