ADD IP INTERFACE
Syntax
ADD IP INTERFACE={ MGMT | type:id } IPADDRESS=ipaddress SUBNET-
MASK=mask [ CARD={ slot | ACTCFC } ] [ IFNAME=ifname ] [ MANAGE-
MENT={ YES | NO } ]
Note: The SBx3112 only supports a single default gateway, DNS server, and Domain Name, and so these
parameters do not appear on the SET IP INTERFACE and ADD IP INTERFACE commands
Description Configures the IP address, gateway address, and subnetmask of a VLAN interface. The
VLAN interface is specified by the vlan number (vid). When the IP interface is added, its
state is by default disabled and must be enabled using the ENABLE IP INTERFACE com-
mand. If the interface and telnet server are enabled (See ENABLE TELNET SERVER),
users can log in to the system via the specified IP address.
Options The following table gives the range of values for each option that can be specified with
this command and a default value (if applicable).
