Configuring IP Routing
Table 6-14. Add IP Interface Web Page Fields
Parameter Allows you to...
Name Enter a unique, alphanumeric name for the
interface (maximum 28 characters)
VLAN A pull down menu that associates a VLAN with this
IP Interface.
Note: The way that you configure a port(s) to a
VLAN determines the IP Routing option that
you select for the interface. Use the
following options to configure the
appropriate interface:
• Default - Selects the default VLAN.(VLAN
ID=1)
• Discard - Selects the VLAN to be
discarded.(VLAN ID= 4097)
• VLANs- A list of all VLANs created on the
switch.
* Note: The following two parameters,
Ethernet-Console and Serial-
Console are special IP interface
settings, and are not part of the normal
routed data path. Do not configure
routing only or routing and
management for the serial interface or
the Ethernet Console, configure both
for management only.
• Ethernet-Console - Creates an IP interface
and assigns the IP address to the Supervisor’s
Ethernet port.
• Serial Console - Creates an IP interface and
assigns the IP address to the Supervisor’s serial
port (RS232). This is necessary if you are using
PPP to connect to the supervisor’s serial port.
Interface Type Ethernet LAN or NBMA.
Non-Broadcast Multi-Access (NBMA) IP Interfaces.
Makes it possible for the switch to exchange routing
information over nonbridged connections (routed
virtual switch ports (VSPs))
NBMA functionality was added to RIP and OSPF
routing protocols on the Avaya Multiservice switch
software.
