  • Page 7: Layer 3 Vlan Interface

    1.2.7 IP Routing is enabled by default in Supermicro switches. The “switchport” command deletes the Physical Layer 3 interface and the interface is reset as a Layer2 interface. The example below shows the commands used to configure a Physical Layer3 Interface.
  • Page 8 The example below shows the commands used to configure a Logical Layer3 interface. SMIS# configure terminal SMIS(config)# vlan 10 SMIS(config-vlan)# ports Gi 0/22 untagged SMIS(config-vlan)# exit SMIS(config)# interface vlan 10 SMIS(config-if)#ip address 10.10.10.1 255.255.255.0 SMIS(config-if)# end Supermicro L2/L3 Switches Configuration Guide...
  • Page 9: Loopback Interface

    Broadcast address is 10.10.10.255 1.2.9 Loopback Interface Supermicro switches support a loopback interface, which is a virtual interface and is not connected to any other device. Loopback interfaces are very useful since they will never go down unless the entire router goes down.
  • Page 10: Inter-Vlan Routing

    VLAN, the traffic must be routed between them. This is known as Inter-VLAN Routing. Supermicro switches use application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), which are hardware chips that can route traffic at very high speeds. These ASICs are installed on the switching engine of a Layer 3 switch, which traditionally switches frames at Layer 2.
  • Page 11 The routing table has an entry for each VLAN interface subnet, therefore, devices in VLAN 10 can communicate with devices in VLAN 20 and vice versa. The example below shows the commands used to configure Inter-VLAN routing. SMIS# configure terminal Supermicro L2/L3 Switches Configuration Guide...
  • Page 12: Static Route

    CPU cycles are used to calculate and analyze routing updates. Routers forward packets using either route information from manually configured route table entries or by using the route information calculated with dynamic routing algorithms. Use of Static Routes: Supermicro L2/L3 Switches Configuration Guide...
  • Page 13 When the next hop for the address is unreachable, the static route is removed from the IP routing table. The “no ip route <prefix><mask> { <next-hop> | Vlan<vlan-id(1-4069)> | <interface -type><interface-id> | null0 } [private]” command deletes the static route. Supermicro L2/L3 Switches Configuration Guide...
  • Page 14: Arp

    ARP cache. ARP is part of all Supermicro switches systems that run IP. Though Supermicro switches are Layer 3 switches that forward packets based on IP address, ARP is required for certain cases like default gateways or for pinging within the same subnet.
  • Page 15 Exits the configuration mode. Step 6 show iparp Displays the ARP table entries. show iparp summary Displays a summary of the ARP table, including dynamic and static entries. show iparp information Displays the ARP configuration details. Supermicro L2/L3 Switches Configuration Guide...
  • Page 16: Dhcp

    DHCP server. A relay agent forwards the packets between the DHCP client and the server. A DHCP server offers configuration parameters (such as an IP address, MAC address, domain name, and a lease for the IP address) to the client in a DHCPOFFER unicast message. Supermicro L2/L3 Switches Configuration Guide...
  • Page 17: Dhcp Server

    1.6.1 DHCP Server The DHCP server implementation in Supermicro switches maintains a database of available IP addresses and configuration information. When the DHCP server receives a request from a DHCP client, the DHCP server determines the network to which the DHCP client is connected. The DHCP server then allocates an IP address or prefix that is appropriate for the client.
  • Page 18 If the ping is unanswered, the DHCP server assumes that the address is not in use and assigns the address to the requesting client. 1.6.1.9 DHCP Server Configuration Defaults Parameter Default Value DHCP server status Disabled DHCP server IP address None Supermicro L2/L3 Switches Configuration Guide...
