foreign-ip

Use the foreign-ip command to specify the IP address and subnet mask of the foreign controller. The foreign-ip command is available from the topology:<named-topology>:l3 context of the CLI for b@ac and routed topologies.

foreign-ip A.B.C.D/0-32

Parameters

A.B.C.D/0-32 Specifies the IP address and subnet mask.

Usage

The foreign-ip command is not available when a controller is in standalone mode.

Once an availability pair is established between two controllers, the foreign-ip command is only visible after "sync" is enabled.

Example

The following example specifies the IP address and mask of the foreign controller:

EWC.extremenetworks.com:topology:r1# sync enable
EWC.extremenetworks.com:topology:r1# l3
EWC.extremenetworks.com:topology:r1:l3:# foreign-ip
