SROS Command Line Interface Reference Guide
ip unnumbered <interface>
Use the ip unnumbered command to use the IP address assigned to the specified interface for all IP
processing on the active interface. Use the no form of this command to remove the unnumbered
configuration.
Syntax Description
<interface>
Default Values
By default, all interfaces are configured to use a specified IP address (using the ip address command).
Functional Notes
If ip unnumbered is enabled on an interface, all IP traffic from the interface will use a source IP address
taken from the specified interface. For example, specifying ip unnumbered eth 0/1 while in the Demand
Interface Configuration mode configures the demand interface to use the IP address assigned to the
Ethernet interface for all IP processing. In addition, the SROS uses the specified interface information
when sending route updates over the unnumbered interface. Static routes may either use the interface
name (ppp 1) or the far-end address (if it will be discovered).
Usage Examples
The following example configures the demand interface (labeled demand 1) to use the IP address
assigned to the Ethernet interface (eth 0/1):
ProCurve(config)#interface demand 1
ProCurve(config-demand 1)#ip unnumbered eth 0/1
5991-2114
Specifies the interface (in the format type slot/port) that contains the IP address
to use as the source address for all packets transmitted on this interface. Type
show ip unnumbered interface ? for a list of valid interfaces.
