Basic Ip Commands (For Layer 3) - D-Link DES-3852 - xStack Switch - Stackable Cli Manual

xStack DES-3800 Series Layer 3 Stackable Fast Ethernet Managed Switch CLI Manual
IP Multinetting is a function that allows multiple IP interfaces to be assigned to the same VLAN. This is beneficial to the
administrator when the number of IPs on the original interface is insufficient and the network administrator wishes not to resize the
interface. IP Multinetting is capable of assigning another IP interface on the same VLAN without affecting the original stations or
settings of the original interface.
Two types of interfaces are configured for IP multinetting, primary and secondary, and every IP interface must be classified as one of
these. A primary interface refers to the first interface created on a VLAN, with no exceptions. All other interfaces created will be
regarded as secondary only, and can only be created once a primary interface has been configured. There may be five interfaces per
VLAN (one primary, and up to four secondary) and they are, in most cases, independent of each other. Primary interfaces cannot be
deleted if the VLAN contains a secondary interface. Once the user 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

Used to create an IP interface on the Switch.
create ipif <ipif_name 12> <ip_addr/netmask> <vlan_name 32>
{secondary | {state [enable | disable] | proxy_arp [enable | disable]}
This command will create an IP interface.
<ipif_name 12> − The name for the IP interface to be created. The user
may enter an alphanumeric string of up to 12 characters to define the IP
interface.
<ip_addr/netmask> − IP address and netmask of the IP interface to be
created. The address and mask information can be specified using the
traditional format (for example, 10.1.2.3/255.0.0.0) or in CIDR format,
(10.1.2.3/8). (This parameter may also appear as <ip_addr/netmask>).
<vlan_name 32> − The name of the VLAN that will be associated with
the above IP interface.
secondary – Enter this parameter if this configured IP interface is to be a
secondary IP interface of the VLAN previously specified. secondary
