ServerIron Switching and Routing Guide

NOTE: An IP Protocol and IP sub-net VLAN cannot operate simultaneously on a Brocade switch or router. This

restriction is also true for IPX and IPX network VLANs. If you have previously defined an IP protocol VLAN on the

system, you need to delete it before an IP sub-net VLAN can be created.

To create an IP sub-net of IP address 192.75.3.0 with permanent port membership of 1 and 2, enter the following

commands:

BigIron(config)#ip-subnet 192.75.3.0 255.255.255.0

BigIron(config-ip-subnet)#static e1 to 2

BigIron(config-ip-subnet)#exit

Syntax: [no] ip-subnet <ip-addr> <ip-mask>

RIP

The ServerIron supports the following RIP versions:

• Version 1

• V1 compatible with V2

• Version 2 (the default)

You can configure the following parameters:

• Global parameters:

• Administrative distance

• Redistribution

• Update interval

• Learning of default route

• Advertising and learning with specific neighbors

• Interface parameters:

•RIP version

•Metric

• Learning of default route

• Split horizon

• Poison reverse

• Advertising and learning of specific routes

For comprehensive information about the RIP features and how to configure them, see the "Configuring RIP"

chapter in the Foundry Enterprise Configuration and Management Guide.

Enabling RIP

RIP is disabled by default. If you want the ServerIron to use RIP you must enable the protocol globally, then

enable RIP on the virtual routing interface and specify the version (version 1 only, version 2 only, or version 1

compatible with version 2).

To globally start the RIP process, enter the following command:

ServerIron(config)#router rip

Syntax: [no] router rip

To enable RIP on the virtual routing interface and specify the RIP version, enter the following commands:

1 2 ... 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 ... 61 62
