Brocade ICX 6450 Stackable Switches Hardware Installation Guide - Manual (Page 69)

Devices running Layer 2 software
NOTE
The ICX 6430 device supports only switch code. The ICX 6450 device supports both switch and router
code.
Use the following procedure to configure an IP address on a device running Layer 2 software.
1. At the opening CLI prompt, enter enable.
device> enable
2. Enter the following command at the Privileged EXEC level prompt, and then press Enter . This
command erases the factory test configuration if still present.
device# erase startup-config
CAUTION
Use the erase startup-config command only for new systems. If you enter this command on
a system you have already configured, the command erases the configuration. If you
accidentally do erase the configuration on a configured system, enter the write memory
command to save the running configuration to the startup-config file.
3. Access the global configuration level of the CLI by entering the following command:
device# configure terminal
device(config)#
4. Configure the IP address and mask for the device.
device(config)# ip address 10.22.3.44 255.255.255.0
5. Set a default gateway address for the device.
device(config)# ip default-gateway 10.22.3.1
NOTE
You do not need to assign a default gateway address for single subnet networks.
Syntax: [no] ip address { ip-addr ip-mask | ip-addr/mask-bits }
Syntax: [no] ip default-gateway ip-addr
Devices running Layer 3 software
Before attaching equipment to a Brocade ICX 6450 router, you must assign an interface IP address to
the subnet on which the router will be located. You must use the serial connection to assign the first IP
address. For subsequent addresses, you also can use the CLI through Telnet.
By default, you can configure up to 24 IP interfaces on each port, virtual interface, and loopback
interface. You can increase this amount to up to 64 IP subnet addresses per port by increasing the size
of the subnet-per-interface table.
The following procedure shows how to add an IP address and mask to a router port.
