Configuring an ICX 6450-C device
IP address configuration
You must configure at least one IP address using the serial connection to the CLI before you can
manage the system using the other management interfaces.
Brocade devices support both classical IP network masks (Class A, B, and C subnet masks, and so on)
and Classless Interdomain Routing (CIDR) network prefix masks.
•
To enter a classical IP network mask, enter the mask in IP address format. For example, enter
"209.157.22.99 255.255.255.0" for an IP address with a Class C subnet mask.
•
To enter a prefix number for a network mask, enter a forward slash (/) and the number of bits in the
mask immediately after the IP address. For example, enter "209.157.22.99/24" for an IP address
that has a network mask with 24 significant ("mask") bits.
By default, the CLI displays network masks in classical IP address format (for example, 255.255.255.0).
You can change the display to the prefix format.
