Configuring IP addresses
3
CAUTION
Use the erase startup-config command only for new systems. If you enter this command on a
system you have already configured, the command erases the configuration. If you accidentally
do erase the configuration on a configured system, enter the write memory command to save the
running configuration to the startup-config file.
3. Access the configuration level of the CLI by entering the following command.
Privileged EXEC Level.
FastIron# configure terminal
Global CONFIG Level.
FastIron(config)#
4. Configure the IPv4 address and mask address for the interface.
FastIron(config)# int e 1/5
FastIron(config-if-e1000-1/5)# ip address 192.22.3.44 255.255.255.0
NOTE
You can use the syntax ip address <ip-addr>/<mask-bits> if you know the subnet mask length.
In the above example, you could enter ip address 192.22.3.44/24.
Syntax: enable [<
password
>]
Syntax: configure terminal
Syntax: [no] ip address <
ip-addr
> <
ip-mask
> [secondary]
or
Syntax: [no] ip address <
ip-addr
>/<
mask-bits
> [secondary]
Use the secondary parameter if you have already configured an IP address within the same subnet
on the interface.
