ip unnumbered <interface>

Use the ip unnumbered command to use the IP address assigned to the specified interface for all IP
processing on the active interface. Use the no form of this command to remove the unnumbered
configuration.

Syntax Description

<interface>

Specifies the interface (in the format type slot/port) that contains the IP address
to use as the source address for all packets transmitted on this interface.

Default Values

By default, all interfaces are configured to use a specified IP address (using the ip address command).

Applicable Platforms

This command applies to the NetVanta 300, 1000, 1000R, and 2000 Series units.

Command History

Release 1.1

Command was introduced

Release 11.1

Command was expanded to include demand interfaces.

Functional Notes

If ip unnumbered is enabled on an interface, all IP traffic from the interface will use a source IP address
taken from the specified interface. For example, specifying ip unnumbered eth 0/1 while in the Frame
Relay Sub-Interface Configuration mode configures the Frame Relay sub-interface to use the IP address
assigned to the Ethernet interface for all IP processing. In addition, the AOS uses the specified interface
information when sending route updates over the unnumbered interface.

Usage Examples

The following example configures the VLAN interface (labeled vlan 1) to use the IP address assigned to
the Ethernet interface (eth 0/1):

(config)#interface vlan 1

(config-interface-vlan 1)#ip unnumbered eth 0/1
