Configuring IP parameters – Layer 3 Switches
Interface IP parameters – Layer 2 Switches
Table 73 lists the interface-level IP parameters for Layer 2 Switches.
Configuring IP parameters – Layer 3 Switches
The following sections describe how to configure IP parameters. Some parameters can be
configured globally while others can be configured on individual interfaces. Some parameters can
be configured globally and overridden for individual interfaces.
Domain name
for Domain
Name Server
(DNS) resolver A domain name (example: Brocade.router.com) you
can use in place of an IP address for certain
operations such as IP pings, trace routes, and Telnet
management connections to the router. None configured page 486
DNS default
gateway
addresses A list of gateways attached to the router through
which clients attached to the router can reach DNSs. None configured page 486
Source
interface The IP address the Layer 2 Switch uses as the source
address for Telnet, RADIUS, or TACACS/TACACS+
packets originated by the router. The Layer 2 Switch
uses its management IP address as the source
address for these packets. The management IP
address of the Layer 2
Switch.
NOTE: This parameter is
not configurable
on Layer 2
Switches.
n/a
DHCP gateway
stamp The device can assist DHCP/BootP Discovery packets
from one subnet to reach DHCP/BootP servers on a
different subnet by placing the IP address of the
router interface that forwards the packet in the
packet Gateway field.
You can specify up to 32 gateway lists. A gateway list
contains up to eight gateway IP addresses. You
activate DHCP assistance by associating a gateway
list with a port.
When you configure multiple IP addresses in a
gateway list, the Layer 2 Switch inserts the addresses
into the DHCP Discovery packets in a round robin
fashion. None configured page 491
1. Some devices have a factory default, such as 10.157.22.154, used for troubleshooting during installation. For
Layer 3 Switches, the address is on port 1 .

Parameter Description Default See page...
DHCP
gateway
stamp You can configure a list of DHCP stamp addresses for a port.
When the port receives a DHCP/BootP Discovery packet from a
client, the port places the IP addresses in the gateway list into
the packet Gateway field. None configured page 491
