•
ip_address
and
netmask
are the IP address and subnet mask of the target network. This IP address can
be entered using IPv4 dotted-decimal or IPv6 colon-separated-hexadecimal notation.
•
gw_address
is the IP address of the default gateway or next-hop route. This IP address can be entered
using IPv4 dotted-decimal or IPv6 colon-separated-hexadecimal notation.
•
To configure a route to the gateway router, use 0.0.0.0 for the network and mask variables.
•
Repeat as needed. Multiple static routes can be configured to the same destination to provide an alternative
means of communication in case the preferred route fails.
Viewing and Verifying Port Configuration
Step 1
Verify that your interface configuration settings are correct by entering the following commands:
[local]
host_name
#
context context_name
[
context_name
]
host_name
#
show { ip | ipv6 } interface
context_name
represents the name of the context in which the interface was created. The output from these commands
should be similar to the following example.
In this example an interface named
mgmt1
was configured in the local context.
Example:
In this example an interface named
mgmt1
was configured in the local context.
Intf Name:
mgmt1
Intf Type:
Broadcast
IP State:
UP (Bound to 10/11 untagged, ifIndex 285278209)
IP Address:
192.168.100.3
Subnet Mask:
255.255.255.0
Bcast Address:
192.168.100.255
MTU:
1500
Resoln Type:
ARP
ARP timeout:
3600 secs
Number of Secondary Addresses:
0
Total interface count:
1
Step 2
Verify that your port configuration settings are correct by entering the following command:
[
context_name
]
host_name
#
show configuration port slot#/port#
Step 3
Verify that your static route(s) was configured properly by entering the following command:
[
context_name
]
host_name
#
show ip static-route
Step 4
Save the configuration as described in the
Verifying and Saving Your Configuration
chapter.
VLANs
Virtual LANs (VLANs) allow two logically separated networks to use the same physical medium. VLAN
segmentation, also called 802.1q tagging, works by appending a tag identifying the VLAN ID to each Ethernet
frame.
For information on how to create VLANs to handle specific packet types, see the
VLANs
chapter.
