This table lists basic properties and IP address commands.
Table 9 interface General Commands: Basic Properties and IP Address Assignment
COMMAND DESCRIPTION
capwap ap vlan vlan-id <1..4094> <tag|untag> When the NWA/WAC is in managed mode, this sets the AP’s
VLAN identification number and sets it to send tagged or
untagged packets.
interface-name {bridge_interface} user_defined_name Specifies a name for a bridge interface. It can use
alphanumeric characters, hyphens, and underscores, and it
can be up to 11 characters long.
ethernet_interface: This must be the system name of a
bridge interface. Use the show interface-name command
to see the system name of interfaces.
user_defined_name:
• This name cannot be one of the follows:
"ethernet", "ppp", "vlan", "bridge", "virtual", "wlan",
"cellular", "aux", "tunnel", "status", "summary", "all"
• This name cannot begin with one of the follows either:
"ge", "ppp", "vlan", "wlan-", "br", "cellular", "aux",
"tunnel".
interface-rename old_user_defined_name
new_user_defined_name
Modifies the user-defined name of an Ethernet interface.
interface send statistics interval <15..3600> Sets how often the NWA/WAC sends interface statistics to
external servers. For example, a syslog server.
[no] interface interface_name Creates the specified interface if necessary and enters sub-
command mode. The
no command deletes the specified
interface.
[no] description description Specifies the description for the specified interface. The
no
command clears the description.
description: You can use alphanumeric and
()+/
:=?!*#@$_%-
characters, and it can be up to 60
characters long.
[no] downstream <0..1048576> This is reserved for future use.
Specifies the downstream bandwidth for the specified
interface. The
no command sets the downstream
bandwidth to 1048576.
exit Leaves the sub-command mode.
[no] ip address dhcp Makes the specified interface a DHCP client; the DHCP
server gives the specified interface its IP address, subnet
mask, and gateway. The
no command makes the IP
address static IP address for the specified interface. (See
the next command to set this IP address.)
[no] ip address ip subnet_mask Assigns the specified IP address and subnet mask to the
specified interface. The
no command clears the IP address
and the subnet mask.
[no] ip gateway ip Adds the specified gateway using the specified interface.
The
no command removes the gateway.
ip gateway ip metric <0..15> Sets the priority (relative to every gateway on every
interface) for the specified gateway. The lower the number,
the higher the priority.
