CLI: Interface

You can use the interface command to configure the interface address and other IP networking settings.

	Note To set global IP network settings (e.g. default gateway) use the "ip" command. To configure a role for an interface (e.g. Cluster, Mirror or WCCP) use associated role command (cluster, mirror or wccp) To configure bridge settings, use the "bridge" command.

Note

To set global IP network settings (e.g. default gateway) use the "ip" command.
To configure a role for an interface (e.g. Cluster, Mirror or WCCP) use associated role command (cluster, mirror or wccp)
To configure bridge settings, use the "bridge" command.

Configuring Interface address

interface <inf> ip address

interface <inf> ipv6 {address|enable}

interface <inf> {dhcp|alias|comment|duplex|speed|mtu|shutdown}

To add or remove an IPv4 address and netmask for the specified interface.

[no] interface <inf> ip address <IPv4 addr> <netmask>

netmask - Specify the netmaks as dotted quad format (e.g. 255.255.255.0) or as a netmask length after a slash (e.g. /24)

To enable IPv6 on the specified interface:

[no] interface <inf> ipv6 enable

To add or remove an IPv6 address for the specified interface:

[no] interface <inf> ipv6 address <IPv6 addr>/<len>

To enable IPv6 stateless address autoconfiguration (SLAAC) on the specified interface:

[no] interface <inf> ipv6 address autoconfig [default | privacy]

To enable DHCP on the specified interface:

interface <inf> dhcp

To renew DHCP on the specified interface:

interface <inf> dhcp renew

To configure an IPv4 alias on the specified interface:

interface <inf> alias <alias index> ip <IPv4 addr>

To add a comment to the specified interface:

interface <inf> comment <comment>

To configure the duplex of the specified interface:

interface <inf> duplex {half|full|auto}

To configure the speed of this interface:

interface <inf> speed {10|100|1000|auto}

E X A M P L E

Set the speed and duplex interface settings for eth2.

interface eth2 speed 100

interface eth2 duplex full

To configure the MTU of this interface:

interface <inf> mtu <mtu>

To disable the specified interface:

interface <inf> shutdown

To display information about the running state for the interfaces:

show interfaces [<inf>] [brief]

<inf> - Optionally, indication that you want information for a single interface; otherwise information for all interfaces will be shown
brief - Optionally, indicate that you want brief details; otherwise the information will be detailed.

To display the current configuration for all interfaces:

show interfaces configured

To display a summary of the running state for all interfaces, including bridge and role information:

show interfaces summary
