Chapter 22, “IP Commands”
On page 22-6 the following bullet should be added to the Usage Guidelines section for the ip interface 
command:
• To create an IP interface for network management purposes, specify Loopback0 (case sensitive) as the 
name of the interface. The Loopback0 interface is not bound to any VLAN, so it will always remain 
operationally active.

New Section, page 13-9
The following section should be added to page 13-9:
Configuring a Loopback0 Interface
Loopback0 is the name assigned to an IP interface to identify a consistent address for network manage-
ment purposes. The Loopback0 interface is not bound to any VLAN, so it will always remain operation-
ally active. This differs from other IP interfaces in that if there are no active ports in the VLAN, all IP 
interface associated with that VLAN are not active. In addition, the Loopback0 interface provides a unique 
IP address for the switch that is easily identifiable to network management applications.
This type of interface is created in the same manner as all other IP interfaces, using the 
ip interface
 
command. To identify a Loopback0 interface, enter Loopback0 for the interface name. For example, the 
following command creates the Loopback0 interface with an IP address of 10.11.4.1:
-> ip interface Loopback0 address 10.11.4.1
