Modifying a Routing Interface

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

ˆ

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

ˆ

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.

ˆ

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.

ˆ

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

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.
