Modifying a Routing Interface

This procedure modifies the IP address and subnet mask of a routing
interface. Note the following before performing this procedure:

Modifying the IP address of a routing interface deletes all static routes
assigned to the interface.

Modifying the IP address of a routing interface that has RIP removes
the routing protocol from the interface and deletes all RIP routes
learned on the interface from the routing table.

You cannot modify the RIP metric of a routing interface from the menus
interface. That task must be performed from the command line
interface using the SET IP INTERFACE command.

You cannot change the name of a routing interface. The only way to
change the VID or interface number of an interface is to delete the
interface and recreate it.

To modify a routing interface, perform the following procedure:

1. From the Main Menu, type 5 to select System Administration.

2. From the System Administration menu, type 2 to select System

Configuration.

3. From the System Configuration menu, type

I

to select Configure

Interface.

The Configure Interface menu is shown in Figure 203 on page 544.

4. From the Configure Interface menu, type M to select Modify Interface.

The following prompt is displayed:

Enter Interface Name:

5. Enter the name of the interface (e.g., vlan2-1) to be modified.
