Cajun P550/P220 Switch Operation Guide
Enabling IP Routing
To enable IP routing for an IP interface:
1.
In the
IP Configuration
section of the Web Agent window, click
Global
Configuration
. The IP Global Configuration dialog box opens.
Note:
IP routing is disabled by default.
2.
Use Table 7-2 to configure your global configuration setup:
Table 7-2.
IP Global Configuration Parameters
Parameter
Allows you to...
IP Unicast
Forwarding
Enable or disable IP unicast on a global basis.
IP Multicast
Forwarding
Enable or disable IP multicast on a global basis. This affects all IP RIP
interfaces set up to use multicast protocols.
IP Source Routing
Enable or disable strict source routing and loose source routing globally.
VRRP
Enable or disable VRRP globally.
BOOTP/DHCP
Relay Agent
Accepts client requests for an IP address and forwards them to a server.
This agent also relays responses from the server to the client.
Limit Proxy ARP
to Same Network
Enable or disable Proxy ARP on the same network. When enabled, the
router only responds to ARP requests when the source and target IP
address are in the same IP network and different IP subnets. When
disabled, the router only responds to ARP requests when the source and
target IP address are in different networks.
Use Default Route
for Proxy ARPs
Enable or disable the use of the default route on your Cajun switch as the
route for Proxy ARPs. For example, if you have a default route configured
to reach the 0.0.0.0 IP address, then any ARP request that does not match
any of the other routes in your IP routing table will automatically go to this
default route.
Maximum
Number of Routes
Specify the maximum number of routes that can be added to the routing
table. The default number of routes is 16384.
Note:
These routes refer only to IP Unicast entries.
Maximum
Number of ARP
Cache Entries
Specify the maximum number of ARP cache entries. Refers to the space
available for the IP address table. When you increase the number of
entries, it may cause the table to be relearned more frequently.
Consequently, it will make address space usage more efficient. The default
maximum number of entries is 16384.
