Configure IP for the interface

To configure IP for an interface, select one of the following procedures:

• To define an IP address for an isolated routing port
• To define an IP address for a virtual routing interface

To define an IP address for an isolated routing port:

1. Choose Edit > Port

The Port dialog box opens and the IP Address tab is displayed.

2. In the IP Address tab, click Insert.

The Insert IP Address dialog box opens

3. In the IP address field, type the IP address
4. In the subnet mask field, type the mask.
5. Click Insert.
   
   

   Note: You cannot edit the IP address, and you can assign only one IP address to any router interface (physical or virtual). Attempting to assign a second IP address returns an invalid IP address error.

   
   

To define an IP address for a virtual routing interface

1. Choose VLAN > VLANs.



The VLANs dialog box opens.

2. Select a VLAN.
3. Click the IP button.



The VLAN IP - Insert Address dialog box opens.

4. In the IP address field, type the IP address
5. In the subnet mask field, type the mask.
6. Click Insert.
   
   

   Note: You can assign only one IP address to any router interface (physical or virtual). Attempting to assign a second IP address returns an invalid IP address error.
