SET IP INTERFACE
Syntax
set ip interface= interface |eth0
[ipaddress= ipaddress |dhcp|bootp] [mask|netmask= subnetmask ]
[ripmetric= value ]
Parameters
interface Specifies the name of the routing interface to be
modified. An interface name consists of “VLAN”
followed by the ID (VID) or name of the VLAN and an
interface number, separated by a dash (e.g., vlan4-0).
The “eth0” value can be used in place of the interface
name to specify the local interface. For background
information, refer to “Interface Names” on page 552.
ipaddress Specifies a new IP address for the interface.
mask or Specifies a new subnet mask for the interface. Do
netmask not specify a mask if the IP address is assigned by a
DHCP or BOOTP server. To change the subnet
mask, you must also include the IP address of the
interface. The default value is based on the address’
network type. The default values are:
Class A address - 255.0.0.0
Class B address - 255.255.0.0
Class C address - 255.255.255.0
Note
In version 2.0.0, the routing table supported only these three values
for subnet masks. In version 2.1.0, the switch supports masks of
variable length, provided the “1” bits are consecutive (e.g.,128, 192,
224, etc.).
ripmetric Specifies the new cost of crossing the interface for
RIP. The range is 1 to 16. The default is 1.
Description
This command modifies the IP address, subnet mask and RIP metric
attribute of an existing routing interface. To initially create an interface,
refer to “ADD IP INTERFACE” on page 573. To view the interfaces, refer
to “SHOW IP INTERFACE” on page 601
