ANAGING NTERFACES AND
You can designate one of the IP addresses configured on a WX switch to
be the system IP address of the switch. The system IP address determines
the interface or source IP address MSS uses for system tasks, including the
following:
Mobility Domain operations
Topology reporting for dual-homed MAPs
Default source IP address used in unsolicited communications such as
AAA accounting reports and SNMP traps
To designate the system IP address, use the following command:
set system ip-address ip-addr
To display the system IP address, use the following command.
display system
To clear the system IP address, use the following command:
clear system ip-address
CAUTION: Clearing the system IP address disrupts the features that use
the address.
The IP route table contains routes that MSS uses for determining the
interfaces for a WX switch's external communications. When you add an
IP interface to a VLAN that is up, MSS automatically adds corresponding
entries to the IP route table.
For destination routes that are not directly attached, you can add static
routes. A static route specifies the destination and the default router
through which to forward traffic.You can add the following types of
static routes:
Explicit route — Forwarding path for traffic to a specific destination
Default route — Forwarding path for traffic to a destination without
an explicit route in the route table
