You don't appear to actually be using the '-p' switch. If you were you would likely want to investigate the use of the 'getopts' command.

This should work for the requirements given:

while [ ! -z $1 ]
do

        case $1 in
        pref|port|merge) echo $1;;
        *) echo "$1" - wrong value;exit 1;;
        esac
        shift

done
