Table 12-1. Add IP Interface Web Page Fields
Parameter Allows you to...
Name Enter a unique, alphanumeric name for the interface
(maximum 30 characters)
VLAN A pull down menu that associates a VLAN with this IP
Interface.
Note: The way that you configure a port(s) to a VLAN
determines the IP Routing option that you select
for the interface. Use the following options to
configure the appropriate interface:
• Default - Selects the default VLAN.(VLAN ID=1)
• Discard - Selects the VLAN to be discarded.(VLAN
ID= 4097)
• VLANs- A list of all VLANs created on the switch.
* Note: The following two parameters, Ethernet-
Console and Serial-Console are special IP
interface settings, and are not part of the
normal routed data path. Do not configure
routing only or routing and management for
the serial interface or the Ethernet Console,
configure both for management only.
• Ethernet-Console - Creates an IP interface and
assigns the IP address to the Supervisor’s Ethernet
port.
• Serial Console - Creates an IP interface and assigns
the IP address to the Supervisor’s serial port
(RS232). This is necessary if you are using PPP to
connect to the supervisor’s serial port.
Interface Type Ethernet LAN or NBMA.
Non-Broadcast Multi-Access (NBMA) IP Interfaces.
Makes it possible for the switch to exchange routing
information over nonbridged connections (routed virtual
switch ports (VSPs))
NBMA functionality was added to RIP and OSPF routing
protocols on the Avaya Multiservice switch software.
Administrative
State Specify the administrative state of the interface. Options
include:
• UP - The interface is active.
