Enabling Ip Routing - Lucent Technologies Cajun P220 Operation Manual

Configuring IP Routing (Layer 3)

Enabling IP Routing

To enable IP routing for an IP interface:
1. In the IP Configuration section of the Web Agent window, click Global
Configuration. The IP Global Configuration dialog box opens.
Note: IP routing is disabled by default.
2. Use Table 7-2 to configure your global configuration setup:
Parameter
IP Unicast
Forwarding
IP Multicast
Forwarding
IP Source Routing
VRRP
BOOTP/DHCP
Relay Agent
Limit Proxy ARP
to Same Network
Use Default Route
for Proxy ARPs
Maximum
Number of Routes
Maximum
Number of ARP
Cache Entries

Table 7-2. IP Global Configuration Parameters
Allows you to...
Enable or disable IP unicast on a global basis.
Enable or disable IP multicast on a global basis. This affects all IP RIP
interfaces set up to use multicast protocols.
Enable or disable strict source routing and loose source routing globally.
Enable or disable VRRP globally.
Accepts client requests for an IP address and forwards them to a server.
This agent also relays responses from the server to the client.
Enable or disable Proxy ARP on the same network. When enabled, the
router only responds to ARP requests when the source and target IP
address are in the same IP network and different IP subnets. When
disabled, the router only responds to ARP requests when the source and
target IP address are in different networks.
Enable or disable the use of the default route on your Cajun switch as the
route for Proxy ARPs. For example, if you have a default route configured
to reach the 0.0.0.0 IP address, then any ARP request that does not match
any of the other routes in your IP routing table will automatically go to this
default route.
Specify the maximum number of routes that can be added to the routing
table. The default number of routes is 16384.
Note: These routes refer only to IP Unicast entries.
Specify the maximum number of ARP cache entries. Refers to the space
available for the IP address table. When you increase the number of
entries, it may cause the table to be relearned more frequently.
Consequently, it will make address space usage more efficient. The default
maximum number of entries is 16384.
