4.1.1. Configuring an IP Address
The RX5000 has the following internet interfaces configured by default: dummy0, fe-cm-1, and
switch.0001. fe-em-1, an additional optional interface, is also configured by default. The default IP
addresses for fe-cm-1, fe-em-1 and switch.0001 are configured under the ipv4 submenu. switch.0001 is
the VLAN interface and is only seen if you have one or more ethernet line modules. It is created implicitly
as all switched ports have a default PVID of 1. The following table lists the default IP addresses.
Interface
IP Address
switch.0001
192.168.0.2/24
fe-cm-1
192.168.1.2/24
fe-em-1 (optional)
