Chapter 3: IP Routing Configuration Guide
Configuring IP Interfaces and Parameters
This section provides an overview of configuring various IP parameters and setting up IP
interfaces.
Configure IP Addresses to Ports
You can configure one IP interface directly to physical ports. Each port can be assigned
multiple IP addresses representing multiple subnets connected to the physical port.
To configure an IP interface to a port, enter one of the following commands in Configure
mode.
Configure IP Interfaces for a VLAN
You can configure one IP interface per VLAN. Once an IP interface has been assigned to a
VLAN, you can add a secondary IP addresses to the VLAN.
To configure a VLAN with an IP interface, enter the following command in Configure
mode:
Specify Ethernet Encapsulation Method
The SmartSwitch Router supports two encapsulation types for IP. You can configure
encapsulation type on a per-interface basis.
• Ethernet II: The standard ARPA Ethernet Version 2.0 encapsulation, which uses a 16-
bit protocol type code (the default encapsulation method)
Configure an IP interface to a
physical port. interface create ip <InterfaceName>
address-mask <ipAddr-mask> port <port>
Configure a secondary address to
an existing IP interface. interface add ip <InterfaceName>
address-netmask <ipAddr-mask>
[broadcast <ipaddr> ]
Create an IP interface for a VLAN. interface create ip <InterfaceName>
address-mask <ipAddr-mask> vlan <name>
Configure a secondary address to
an existing VLAN. interface add ip <InterfaceName>
address-netmask <ipAddr-mask>
vlan <name>
