This section describes the commands associated with configuring IP 
unicast routing on the Switch 9000. Configuring routing involves the 
following steps:

■

Verify the Switch operating mode is set to 

iprouting

, by using the 

following command:

show switch

If it is not, use the following command:

config devicemode iprouting

■

Create and configure two or more VLANs.

For information on creating and configuring VLANs, refer to 
Chapter 5.

■

Assign each VLAN that will be using routing an IP address, using the 
following command:

config vlan <name> ipaddress <ipaddress> {<mask>}

Ensure that each VLAN has a unique IP address.

■

Configure a default route, using the following command:

config iproute add default <gateway> {<metric>}

Default routes are used when the router has no other dynamic or 
static route to the requested destination.

■

Turn on IP routing for one or more VLANs, using the following 
command:

enable ipforwarding {vlan <name> | all}

■

Turn on RIP, using the following command:

enable rip

When you create a VLAN, RIP is enabled by default. You must, 
however, enable RIP on the Switch to route traffic. To disable RIP on a 
particular VLAN, use the following command:

config rip delete {vlan <name>}
