sub
: Secondary IP address of a VLAN or loopback interface.
Description
Use the
ip address
command to specify an IP address and mask for a VLAN or
loopback interface.
Use the
undo ip address
command to remove an IP address and mask of a VLAN or
loopback interface.
By default, a VLAN or loopback interface has no IP address.
Generally, it is enough to configure one IP address for an interface. However, you can
configure up to eight IP addresses for an interface so that it can be connected to
several subnets. Among these IP addresses, one is the primary IP address and all the
others are secondary ones. The relationship between the primary address and the
secondary addresses is as follows:
z
When you configure a primary IP address for an interface which already has a
primary IP address, the new address will replace the old one.
z
If you execute the
undo ip address
command without any parameter, the switch
deletes both primary and secondary IP addresses of the interface. The
undo ip
address
ip-address
{
mask | mask-length
}
command is used to delete the
primary IP address. The
undo ip address
ip-address
{
mask | mask-length
}
sub
command is used to delete secondary IP addresses.
Note that a VLAN interface cannot be configured with a secondary IP address if the
interface has been configured to obtain an IP address by BOOTP or DHCP.
