This section describes the commands associated with conÞguring IP unicast routing on
the Summit. ConÞguring routing involves the following steps:
¥
Verify the Switch operating mode is set to
iprouting
, by using the following
command:
show switch
If it is not, use the following command:
config devicemode iprouting
¥
Create and conÞgure two or more VLANs.
For information on creating and conÞguring VLANs, refer to
Chapter 5
.
¥
Assign each VLAN that will be using routing an IP address, using the following
command:
config vlan <name> ipaddress <ipaddress> {<mask>}
Ensure that each VLAN has a unique IP address.
¥
ConÞgure a default route, using the following command:
config iproute add default <gateway> {<metric>}
Default routes are used when the router has no other dynamic or static route to the
requested destination.
¥
Turn on IP routing for one or more VLANs, using the following command:
enable ipforwarding {vlan <name> | all}
¥
Turn on RIP, using the following command:
enable rip
When you create a VLAN, RIP is enabled by default. You must, however, enable RIP
on the Switch in order to route trafÞc. To disable RIP on a particular VLAN, use the
following command:
—
config rip delete {vlan <name>}
