Note

For the examples in this guide, a private network (172.16.1) IP
address is used.

172.16.40.1(ctx-ip)[router]#interface eth0

172.16.40.1(if-ip)[eth0]#ipaddress 172.16.1.10 255.255.255.0

2002-10-29T00:09:40 : LOGINFO : Link down on interface eth0.

2002-10-29T00:09:40 : LOGINFO : Link up on interface eth0.

172.16.1.10(if-ip)[eth0]#
