   Note: You can assign only one IP address to any router interface (brouter or VLAN). Attempting to assign a second IP address returns an invalid IP address error. You cannot assign an IP address to a VLAN if a brouter port is a member of the VLAN. To assign an IP address to the VLAN, you must first remove the brouter port member.
