Router Configuration Overview
In an Alcatel-Lucent router, an interface is a logical named entity. An interface is created by
specifying an interface name under the configure>router context. This is the global router
configuration context where objects like static routes are defined. An IP interface name can
be up to 32 alphanumeric characters long, must start with a letter, and is case-sensitive; for
example, the interface name “1.1.1.1” is not allowed, but “int-1.1.1.1” is allowed.
To create an interface, the basic configuration tasks that must be performed are:
• Assign a name to the interface.
• Associate an IP address with the interface.
• Associate the interface with a network interface or the system interface.
