Configuring IP Interfaces
An IP interface allows the internet protocol to be executed over an FRX8000 Switch
frame relay, X.25, LAN (Ethernet, 802.3, or 802.5), or network interface port. (N7000
nodes do not support routing via IP.)
A network IP interface will use any trunk port in the node.
If this node will be running IP, press
[A]
, then
[C]
from the LAN Interface Configu-
ration Menu (or
[A], [E], [A], [C]
from the Main Menu) to configure an interface. When
prompted, enter an interface number:
0
or
1
for a LAN interface or
2–128
for X.25,
network, or frame relay. (This is a sequential number to identify the interface.) The
display depends on the interface; Figure 14-1 shows an example.
Figure 14-1 IP Interface Record Example
[A],[E],[A],[C]
from Main Menu
You can create a report that contains configuration parameters for any or all FRX8000
IP Interfaces in the inter-network. See "
Producing an IP Report " on page 14-7.
When Changes Take Effect
When you add a new IP Interface record, the change will be written to the database as
soon as you enter the final parameter value. When you modify a parameter in an
existing record, the change will be written to the database instantly.
To make the change effective, press [F7] while the record is displayed. (If this is not
done, the change will become effective the next time the node containing the interface
undergoes re-IPL.)
