Displaying IP interface information

To display IP interface information, enter the following command at any CLI level.

Syntax: show ip interface [ethernet slot/port] | [loopback num] | [ve num]

This display shows the following information.

TABLE 100

CLI display of global IP configuration information

This field...

Displays...

Global settings

ttl

The Time-To-Live (TTL) for IP packets. The TTL specifies the maximum number
of router hops a packet can travel before reaching the Brocade device. If the
packet’s TTL value is higher than the value specified in this field, the device
drops the packet.
To change the maximum TTL, refer to

“Changing the TTL threshold”

.

arp-age

The ARP aging period. This parameter specifies how many minutes an inactive
ARP entry remains in the ARP cache before the device ages out the entry.
To change the ARP aging period, refer to

“Changing the ARP aging period”

.

bootp-relay-max-hops

The maximum number of hops away a BootP server can be located from the
device and still be used by the device’s clients for network booting.
To change this value, refer to

“Changing the maximum number of hops to a

BootP relay server”

.

router-id

The 32-bit number that uniquely identifies the device.
By default, the router ID is the numerically lowest IP interface configured on the
device. To change the router ID, refer to

“Changing the router ID”

.

enabled

The IP-related protocols that are enabled on the device.

disabled

The IP-related protocols that are disabled on the device.

TABLE 101

CLI display of interface IP configuration information

This field...

Displays...

Interface

The type and the slot and port number of the interface.

IP-Address

The IP address of the interface.
NOTE: If an “s” is listed following the address, this is a secondary address. When the

address was configured, the interface already had an IP address in the same
subnet, so the software required the “secondary” option before the software
could add the interface.

OK?

Whether the IP address has been configured on the interface.

Method

Whether the IP address has been saved in NVRAM. If you have set the IP address for the
interface in the CLI, but have not saved the configuration, the entry for the interface in
the Method field is “manual”.

Interface IP-Address OK? Method Status Protocol VRF
