IPv4 Interface

Basic IPv4 Configuration

This section describes commands used to configure IP addresses for VLAN interfaces on the
switch.

ip address

This command sets the IPv4 address for the currently selected VLAN interface. Use the no form to
restore the default IP address.

Syntax

ip address {ip-address netmask | ip-address/prefix-length} [secondary]

[default-gateway ip-address] | bootp | dhcp}

no ip address [ip-address netmask [secondary] | dhcp]

ip-address - IP address

netmask - Network mask for the associated IP subnet. This mask identifies the host
address bits used for routing to specific subnets.

prefix-length - A decimal value indicating how many contiguous bits (from the left) of the
address comprise the network portion of the address. (Range: 0-32)

secondary - Specifies a secondary IP address.

default-gateway - The default gateway. (Refer to the

ip default-gateway

command which

provides the same function.)

bootp - Obtains IP address from BOOTP.
