Ip Interface Setup - D-Link DGS-3324SRi User Manual

creates multiple interfaces for a specified VLAN (primary and secondary), that set IP interface cannot be changed to
another VLAN.
IP Multinetting is a valuable tool for network administrators requiring a multitude of IP addresses, but configuring
the Switch for IP multinetting may cause troubleshooting and bandwidth problems, and should not be used as a long term
solution. Problems may include:
The Switch may use extra resources to process packets for multiple IP interfaces.
The amount of broadcast data, such as RIP update packets and PIM hello packets, will be increased.

IP Interface Setup

Each VLAN must be configured prior to setting up the VLAN's corresponding IP interface.
An example is presented below:
In this case, six 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 six network addresses and six 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:

Application Limitation: A multicast router cannot be connected to IP
interfaces that are utilizing the IP Multinetting function.
NOTE: Only the primary IP interface will support the BOOTP relay agent.
