Parameter Description
VLAN The VLAN associated with this IP interface.
Select Use this option to create or modify a VLAN under the “Port Group Configuration”
menu.
IP Address The IP address associated with the specified VLAN interface. In general, it is the
router IP address for the specified VLAN members.
Subnet Mask A template that identifies the address bits in the host address used for routing to
specific subnets. Each bit that corresponds to a “1” is part of the network / subnet
number; and each bit that corresponds to“0” is part of the host number.
Proxy ARP Enables or disables Proxy ARP for the interface. This feature allows the switch
forward an ARP request from a node in the attached subnetwork (that does not have
routing or a default gateway configured) to a remote subnetwork. (See “6.2.5 Proxy
ARP”.)
Note that Proxy ARP must be enabled globally for the switch before this setting can
take effect. (See “4.5.6.2 Protocol Configuration”.)
RIP Routing Information Protocol for unicast routing.
OSPF Open Shortest Path First unicast routing protocol.
DVMRP Distance-Vector Multicast Routing Protocol.
