Configuring the ECN330-switch

• There may be one or more management VLANs on the ECN330-switch,
depending on whether the switch is set the ECN330 mode or ECN330-
switch mode. Management VLANs operate as isolated VLANs and data
traffic is not routed to or from other VLANs, nor is the management IP
interface advertised by routing protocols to other routers.
• To enable routing between the different management interfaces on the
ECN330-switch, IP routing must be enabled (see “Basic IP Interface
Configuration” on page 401).
• To enable routing between the management interfaces defined on the
ECN330-switch and external network interfaces, static routes must be
configured (see “Configuring Static Routes” on page 421) or dynamic
routing enabled; that is, either RIP (see “Configuring the Routing
Information Protocol” on page 424) or OSPF (see “Configuring the
Open Shortest Path First Protocol” on page 436).
• The ECN330-switch attempts to map outgoing IP traffic to a configured
IP interface based on the following order of precedence:
• IP / General / Routing Interface menu (page 403),
• Static routes (page 421), and then
• Dynamic routing using RIP (page 424) or OSPF (page 436).
Command Attributes
• VLAN – ID of the configured VLAN (1-4094, no leading zeroes). The
default configuration for ECN330 mode uses VLAN 246 for external
management and VLAN 247 for internal management. VLAN 247 is
already configured to obtain an IP address using DHCP. The default
configuration for ECN330-switch mode designates all ports as tagged
members of VLAN 246 and untagged members of VLAN 1. If the
management station is attached directly to the ECN330 and a
management VLAN has been enabled, it must be attached to a port
belonging to the specified VLAN.
• IP Address Mode – Specifies whether IP functionality is enabled
through manual configuration (Static), Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol (DHCP), or Boot Protocol (BOOTP). If DHCP/BOOTP is
enabled, IP will not function until a reply has been received from the
server. Requests will be broadcast periodically by the ECN330-switch
for an IP address. (DHCP/BOOTP values can include the IP address,
subnet mask, and default gateway.)
