Configuration Task List For Ip Addresses; Implementation Information - Dell Force10 C150 Configuration Manual

At its most basic level, an IP address is 32-bits composed of network and host portions and represented in
dotted decimal format. For example,
is represented as 10.214.87.131
For more information on IP addressing, refer to

Implementation Information

In FTOS, you can configure any IP address as a static route except IP addresses already assigned to
interfaces.
Note: FTOS versions 7.7.1.0 and later support 31-bit subnet masks (/31, or 255.255.255.254) as defined by
RFC 3021. This feature allows you to save two more IP addresses on point-to-point links than 30-bit masks.
FTOS supports RFC 3021 with ARP.

Configuration Task List for IP Addresses

The following list includes the configuration tasks for IP addresses:
• Assign IP addresses to an interface on page 464
• Configure static routes on page 466
• Configure static routes for the management interface on page 467
For a complete listing of all commands related to IP addressing, refer to
Reference
Assign IP addresses to an interface
Assign primary and secondary IP addresses to physical or logical (for example, VLAN or port channel)
interfaces to enable IP communication between the E-Series and hosts connected to that interface. In
FTOS, you can assign one primary address and up to 255 secondary IP addresses to each interface.
