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 BVI
interface Configuration mode configures the BVI interface to use the IP address assigned to the Ethernet
interface for all IP processing. In addition, SROS uses the specified interface information when sending
route updates over the unnumbered interface.
Usage Examples
The following example configures BVI interface 1 to use the IP address assigned to the Ethernet interface
(eth 0/1):
ProCurve(config)#interface bvi 1
ProCurve(config-bvi 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.
