Optional: Add the secondary keyword to the { ip | ipv6 } address command, to assign multiple IP addresses to
the interface. IP addresses can be entered using IPv4 dotted-decimal or IPv6 colon-separated-hexadecimal
notation.
notation.
Optional: In the interface config mode, add the port-switch-on-L3-fail address command, to configure the
interface for switchover to the port on the redundant line card if connectivity to a specified IP address is lost.
This IP address can be entered using IPv4 dotted-decimal or IPv6 colon-separated-hexadecimal notation.
This IP address can be entered using IPv4 dotted-decimal or IPv6 colon-separated-hexadecimal notation.
Configuring a Virtual Port and Binding It to an Interface
Use the following example configuration to configure and assign a port to an interface:
configure
port ethernet slot#/port#
description description
no shutdown
bind interface interface_name context_name
end
Notes:
For port ethernet slot#, always use slot 1.
For port ethernet port#, use ports 1 (mgmt) or 10 to 21 (traffic).
Binding associates the port and all of its settings to the named interface.
Configuring a Static Route for an Interface
Use the following example to configure a static route for an interface:
configure
context name
{ ip | ipv6 } route ip_address netmask next-hop gw_address interface_name
end
Notes:
ip_address and netmask are the IP address and subnet mask of the target network. This IP address can be entered
using IPv4 dotted-decimal or IPv6 colon-separated-hexadecimal notation.
gw_address is the IP address of the default gateway or next-hop route. This IP address can be entered using IPv4
dotted-decimal or IPv6 colon-separated-hexadecimal notation.
To configure a route to the gateway router, use 0.0.0.0 for the network and mask variables.
Repeat as needed. Multiple static routes can be configured to the same destination to provide an alternative
means of communication in case the preferred route fails.
