Interface Setup
22.1 Interface Setup Overview
This chapter shows you how to create virtual interfaces for interface-based configurations. An IPv6
address is configured on a per-interface basis. The interface can be a physical interface (for example,
an Ethernet port) or a virtual interface (for example, a VLAN).
22.2 Interface Setup
Use this screen to view and create IPv4 loopback interfaces for routing protocols, or create IPv6
interfaces for VLANs on which you can configure an IPv6 address to access and manage the Switch.
The interfaces you create here will only take effect after you configure them in:
• the NETWORKING > Loopback Interface > IPv4 Loopback Interface screen, or
• the SYSTEM > IPv6 screens.
Click SYSTEM > Interface Setup in the navigation panel to display the configuration screen.
Figure 98 SYSTEM > Interface Setup
