The first two commands in this example create a Layer 3 protocol-based VLAN name "IP-Subnet_10.1.2.0/24" and add a range of
untagged ports to the VLAN. The
router-interface
command creates virtual interface 1 as the routing interface for the VLAN.
Syntax:
router-interface
ve
num
The
num
variable specifies the virtual interface number. You can enter a number from 1 through 4095.
When configuring virtual routing interfaces on a device, you can specify a number from 1 through 4095. However, the total number of
virtual routing interfaces that are configured must not exceed the system-max limit of 512 (or 255 for the ICX 7250).
The last two commands move the configuration to the interface configuration mode for the virtual interface and assign an IP address to
the interface.
Syntax:
interface
ve
num
Configuring IP follow on a virtual routing interface
IP Follow allows multiple virtual routing interfaces to share the same IP address. With this feature, one virtual routing interface is
configured with an IP address, while the other virtual routing interfaces are configured to use that IP address, thus, they "follow" the virtual
routing interface that has the IP address. This feature is helpful in conserving IP address space.
Configuration limitations and feature limitations for IP Follow on a virtual routing interface
•
When configuring IP Follow, the primary virtual routing interface should not have ACL or DoS Protection configured. It is
recommended that you create a dummy virtual routing interface as the primary and use the IP-follow virtual routing interface for
the network.
•
Global Policy Based Routing is not supported when IP Follow is configured.
•
IPv6 is not supported with IP Follow.
•
FastIron devices support IP Follow with OSPF and VRRP protocols only.
Configuration syntax for IP Follow on a virtual routing interface
Configure IP Follow by entering commands such as the following.
device(config)# vlan 2 name IP-Subnet_10.1.2.0/24
device(config-vlan-2)# untag ethernet 1 to 4
device(config-vlan-2)# router-interface ve 1
device(config-vlan-2)# interface ve 1
device(config-vif-1)# ip address 10.10.2.1/24
device(config-vif-1)# interface ve 2
device(config-vif-2)# ip follow ve 1
device(config-vif-2)# interface ve 3
device(config-vif-3)# ip follow ve 1
Syntax:[no] ip follow ve
number
For
number,
enter the ID of the virtual routing interface.
Use the
no
form of the command to disable the configuration.
Virtual routing interface 2 and 3 do not have their own IP subnet addresses, but share the IP address of virtual routing interface 1.
Deleting an IP address
To delete an IP address, enter the
no ip address
command.
device(config-if-e1000-1)# no ip address 10.1.2.1
