Routing IP Interface Summary
Routing IP Interface Summary Fields
Field
Description
Interface
The interface associated with the rest of the data in the row. When viewing details about the routing
settings for an interface, this field identifies the interface being viewed.
Status
Indicates whether the interface is capable of routing IP packets (
Up
) or cannot route packets (
Down
).
For the status to be Up, the routing mode and administrative mode for the interface must be enabled.
Additionally, the interface must have an IP address and be physically up (active link).
IP Address
The IP address of the interface.
Subnet Mask
The IP subnet mask for the interface (also known as the network mask or netmask). It defines the
portion of the interface’s IP address that is used to identify the attached network.
Admin Mode
The administrative mode of the interface, which is either
Enabled
or
Disabled
.
State
The state of the interface, which is either
Active
or
Inactive
. An interface is considered active if the link
is up, and the interface is in a forwarding state.
MAC Address
The burned-in physical address of the interface. The format is six two-digit hexadecimal numbers
separated by colons, for example 00:06:29:32:81:40.
Proxy ARP
Indicates whether proxy ARP is enabled or disabled on the interface. When proxy ARP is enabled,
the interface can respond to an ARP request for a host other than itself. An interface can act as an
ARP proxy if it is aware of the destination and can route packets to the intended host, which is on a
different subnet than the host that sent the ARP request.
IP MTU
The largest IP packet size the interface can transmit, in bytes. The IP Maximum Transmission Unit
(MTU) is the maximum frame size minus the length of the Layer-2 header.
