Implementation Information

You can configure any IP address as a static route except IP addresses already assigned to interfaces.

31-bit subnet masks (/31, or 255.255.255.254), as defined by RFC 3021, are supported. This feature

allows you to save two more IP addresses on point-to-point links than 30-bit masks. The system also

supports RFC 3021 with ARP.

The following describes the tasks associated with IP address configuration.

Configuration tasks for IP addresses includes:

Configuring Static Routes

Configure Static Routes for the Management Interface

For a complete listing of all commands related to IP addressing, refer to the Dell Networking OS Command

Line Reference Guide.

Assigning IP Addresses to an Interface

Assign primary and secondary IP addresses to physical or logical (for example, [virtual local area network

[VLAN] or port channel) interfaces to enable IP communication between the system and hosts connected to

that interface.

You can assign one primary address and up to 255 secondary IP addresses to each interface.

You cannot assign an IP address on a port extender interface and VP-LAG. However, you can

assign an IP address to a VLAN that is associated with a port extender interface or a VP-LAG interface that

is a member. The commands that are applicable on a switchport are only available on the port extender

Enter the keyword interface then the type of interface and slot/port information.

CONFIGURATION mode

interface interface

For a loopback interface, enter the keyword loopback then a number from 0 to 16383.

For the Management interface, enter the keyword ManagementEthernet 0/0 . The slot number

is 0; the port number is 0.

For a port channel interface, enter the keywords port-channel then a number.

For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/port

information.

For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fortyGigE then the slot/port information.
