Displaying Interfaces

You can display a table that shows all IP interfaces configured for each
switching module in the system, including their parameter settings.
To display IP interface information:
1 From the Administration Console top-level menu, enter:
ip interface display
2 Enter the slot(s) of the switching module(s) for which you want to display
the interface information. Separate non-consecutive slots with commas (,).
Enter a consecutive series of slots using a dash (-).
As shown in the following example, the current configuration is displayed.
It contains IP forwarding and RIP information for that slot as well as the IP
interface information.

Defining an Interface
When you define an interface, you define the interface's IP address, subnet
mask, broadcast address, cost, and the collection of switching module ports
associated with the interface.
Table 3-1 shows the recommended settings for the IP interface parameters
if you are setting up the system for management.
