Configuring Layer 3 IP Networking

To access the

Layer 3 IP Networking

links, open the

Configuration

folder and then the

Layer 3 IP Networking folder.

Setting Up IP Interfaces

Each VLAN must be configured prior to setting up the VLAN’s corresponding IP interface.

An example is presented below:

VLAN Name

VID

Switch Ports

System (default)

1

5, 6, 7, 8, 21, 22, 23, 24

Table 4- 2.

VLAN Example – Assigned Ports

In this case, 6 IP interfaces are required, so a CIDR notation of 10.32.0.0/11 (or a 11-bit)

addressing scheme will work. This addressing scheme will give a subnet mask of

11111111.11100000.00000000.00000000 (binary) or 255.224.0.0 (decimal).

Using a 10.xxx.xxx.xxx IP address notation, the above example would give 6 network

addresses and 6 subnets.

Any IP address from the allowed range of IP addresses for each subnet can be chosen as an IP

address for an IP interface on the switch.

For this example, we have chosen the next IP address above the network address for the IP

interface’s IP Address:

VLAN Name

VID

Network Number

Table 4- 3. VLAN Example – Assigned IP Interfaces

The 6 IP interfaces, each with an IP address (listed in the table above), and a subnet mask of

255.224.0.0 can be entered into the

IP Interfaces Table

window.

To setup IP Interfaces on the switch:

Go to the

Configuration

folder, and click on the

Layer 3 IP Networking

folder, and then

click on the

IP Interface Table

link to open the following dialog box:

Figure 4- 50. IP Interface Table window

To setup a new IP interface, click the

Add

button. To edit an existing IP Interface entry, click

on an entry under the

Interface Name

heading. Both actions will result in the same screen, as

shown below.

Figure 4- 51. IP Interface Configuration window

Choose a name for the interface to be added and enter it in the

Interface Name

field (if you

are editing an IP Interface, the

Interface Name

will already be in the top field as seen in the

window above). Enter the interface’s IP address and subnet mask in the corresponding fields.

Pull the

Active

pull-down menu to

Yes

and

click

Apply

to enter to make the IP interface

effective.

Use the

Save Changes

dialog box from the

Basic Setup

folder to enter the changes

into NV-RAM.

The following fields can be set:

Parameter

Description

This field displays the name for the IP interface. The default IP interface is

named “System”.

Interface Name

This field allows the entry of an IP address to be assigned to this IP

interface.

IP Address

This field allows the entry of a subnet mask to be applied to this IP interface.

Subnet Mask

This field allows the entry of the VLAN Name for the VLAN the IP interface

belongs to.

VLAN Name

State <

Disabled

>

This field may be altered between

Enabled

and

Disabled

using the pull

down menu. This entry determines whether the interface will be active or

not.
