Basic IP parameters and defaults – Layer 3 Switches
IP interface parameters – Layer 3 Switches
Table 3 lists the interface-level IP parameters for Layer 3 Switches.
Static route An IP route you place in the IP route table. No entries page 45
Source
interface The IP address the router uses as the source
address for Telnet, RADIUS, or TACACS/TACACS+
packets originated by the router. The router can
select the source address based on either of the
following:
•
The lowest-numbered IP address on the
interface the packet is sent on.
•
The lowest-numbered IP address on a specific
interface. The address is used as the source for
all packets of the specified type regardless of
interface the packet is sent on.
The lowest-numbered IP
address on the interface
the packet is sent on. page 31

Parameter Description Default For more
information
IP state The Internet Protocol, version 4 Enabled
NOTE: You cannot
disable IP.
n/a
IP address A Layer 3 network interface address
NOTE: Layer 2 Switches have a single IP address
used for management access to the entire
device. Layer 3 Switches have separate IP
addresses on individual interfaces.

Encapsulation type The format of the packets in which the router
encapsulates IP datagrams. The encapsulation
format can be one of the following:
•
Ethernet II
•
SNAP
Ethernet II page 28
Maximum
Transmission Unit
(MTU) The maximum length (number of bytes) of an
encapsulated IP datagram the router can forward. 1500 for Ethernet II
encapsulated packets
1492 for SNAP

Ten minutes page 37
Metric A numeric cost the router adds to RIP routes
learned on the interface. This parameter applies
only to RIP routes. 1 (one) page 144
Directed broadcast
forwarding Locally overrides the global setting. Refer to
Table 2 on page 12.
Disabled page 41
ICMP Router
