Be sure that you understand the potential effects of router port-based and VLAN-based routing on your network. See the Implementation Guide for the CoreBuilder 3500 and for the CoreBuilder 9000 for detailed information about IP interfaces and VLANs.

Page 407: Ip Interface Modify
Important Consideration 3900 9300 On the CoreBuilder 3500, you cannot modify the port number (router port-based routing) after it has been defined because of the associated virtual LAN (VLAN); you must remove the interface and then redefine it.
Page 408: Ip Interface Remove
Before you remove the interface, remove any static entries in the routing table or the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) cache. On the CoreBuilder 3500, if you remove a router port-based IP interface, the system removes the virtual LAN (VLAN) that is associated with it as well.

Subnet mask (IP) For the CoreBuilder 3500 only, the system prompts you for an IP address and subnet mask. As a result, you can display only a subset of routes instead of all routes. To see all entries in the table, simply press Enter at these prompts.
Page 421 Fields in the IP Route Display Field Description Destination IP address of the destination network, subnetwork, or host. This field can also identify a default route, which the system uses to forward packets that do not match any other routing table entry. You may want to use the default route in place of routes to numerous destinations that all have the same gateway IP address.
