Primary IP Address Field Descriptions
Use the data in the following table to use the Primary IP Address tab.
Name |
Description |
---|---|
Interface |
Shows the interface to which this entry applies. |
Ip Address |
Specifies the IP address to associate with the VLAN. |
Net Mask |
Specifies the subnet mask associated with the IP address of this entry. The value of the mask is an IP address with all the network bits configured to 1 and all the hosts bits configured to 0. |
Name |
Specifies a name for the interface. |
BcastAddrFormat |
Shows the IP broadcast address format on this interface. |
ReasmMaxSize |
Shows the size of the largest IP datagram which this entity can reassemble from incoming IP fragmented datagrams received on this interface. |
VlanId |
Specifies the VLAN ID in the range of 1 to 4059. By default, VLAN IDs 1 to 4059 are configurable and the system reserves VLAN IDs 4060 to 4094 for internal use. On switches that support the vrf-scaling and spbm-config-mode boot configuration flags, if you enable these flags, the system also reserves VLAN IDs 3500 to 3998. VLAN ID 1 is the default VLAN and you cannot create or delete VLAN ID 1. |
BrouterPort |
Indicates whether this entry corresponds to a brouter port, as oppose to a routable VLAN. |
MacOffset |
Specifies the MAC offset value. Routable VLANS are assigned MAC addresses arbitrarily or by offset. Their MAC addresses are:
If you enter the MAC offset, the lowest 12 bits are 0xA00 plus the offset. If not, they are arbitrary. |
IfType |
Identifies the type of interface. |
VrfId |
Associates the VLAN with a VRF. VRF ID 0 is reserved for the administrative VRF. |
