Configuring Routing Interface Settings
details on configuration modes supported by the Enterasys Matrix Series device and their uses,
refer to Table
VLANs must be created from the switch CLI before they can be configured for IP routing. For
details on creating VLANs and configuring them for IP, refer to "Reviewing and Configuring
Routing" on page 2‐101.
Each VLAN or loopback interface must be configured for routing separately using the interface
command. To end configuration on one interface before configuring another, type exit at the
command prompt. Enabling interface configuration mode is required for completing interface‐
specific configuration tasks. For an example of how these commands are used, refer to Figure
in "Pre‐Routing Configuration Tasks" on page
Each Enterasys Matrix Series routing module or standalone device can support up to 96 routing
interfaces. Each interface can be configured for the RIP and/or OSPF routing protocols.
Example
This example shows how to enter configuration mode for VLAN 1:
Matrix>Router#configure terminal
Matrix>Router(config)#interface vlan 1
Matrix>Router(config-if(Vlan 1))#
ip ecm-forwarding-algorithm
Use this command to enable ECM (Equal Cost Multipath) for forwarding IP packets on routing
interfaces.
Syntax
ip ecm-forwarding-algorithm [hash-thold | round-robin]
no ip ecm-forwarding-algorithm
Parameters
hash‐thold | round‐
robin
Defaults
If algorithm is not specified, hash threshold will be set.
Mode
Router command, Global configuration: Matrix>Router(config)#
Usage
The "no" form of this command disables ECM mode.
Example
This example shows how to enable ECM mode:
Matrix>Router(config)#ip ecm-forwarding-algorithm
16-4 IP Configuration
2‐9 in "Enabling Router Configuration Modes" on page 2‐103.
(Optional) Sets the ECM forwarding algorithm as hash threshold or
round‐robin.
