Overview of IPv4 Unicast Routing
The switch provides full Layer 3, IPv4 unicast routing. It exchanges routing information with other
routers on the network using either the Routing Information Protocol (RIP) or the Open Shortest Path
First (OSPF) protocol. The switch dynamically builds and maintains a routing table and determines the
best path for each of its routes.
Each host using the IP unicast routing functionality of the switch must have a unique IP address
assigned. In addition, the default gateway assigned to the host must be the IP address of the router
interface.
Beginning in release 11.2, ExtremeWare XOS can provide both IPv4 and IPv6 routing at the same time.
Separate routing tables are maintained for the two versions. Most commands that require you to specify
an IP address can now accept either an IPv4 or IPv6 address and act accordingly. Additionally, many of
the IP configuration, enabling, and display commands have added tokens for IPv4 and IPv6 to clarify
the version required. For simplicity, existing commands affect IPv4 by default and require you to specify
IPv6, so configurations from an earlier release will still correctly configure an IPv4 network.
