Basic IP parameters and defaults – Layer 3 Switches
IP global parameters – Layer 3 Switches (Continued)
Description
An IP address you place in the RARP table for RARP
requests from hosts.
NOTE: You must enter the RARP entries manually.
The Layer 3 Switch does not have a
mechanism for learning or dynamically
generating RARP entries.
The maximum number of hops away a BootP server
can be located from a router and still be used by the
router clients for network booting.
A domain name (example: brocade.router.com) you
can use in place of an IP address for certain
operations such as IP pings, trace routes, and Telnet
management connections to the router.
A list of gateways attached to the router through
which clients attached to the router can reach DNSs.
A Dell feature that enables the router to balance
traffic to a specific destination across multiple
equal-cost paths.
IP load sharing uses a hashing algorithm based on
the source IP address, destination IP address, and
protocol field in the IP header.
NOTE: Load sharing is sometimes called Equal Cost
Multi Path (ECMP).
The maximum number of equal-cost paths across
which the Layer 3 Switch is allowed to distribute
traffic.
You can enable a router to originate default routes
for the following route exchange protocols, on an
individual protocol basis:
•
RIP
•
OSPF
•
BGP4
The router uses the default network route if the IP
route table does not contain a route to the
destination and also does not contain an explicit
default route (0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 or 0.0.0.0/0).
An IP route you place in the IP route table.
The IP address the router uses as the source
address for Telnet, RADIUS, or TACACS/TACACS+
packets originated by the router. The router can
select the source address based on either of the
following:
•
The lowest-numbered IP address on the
interface the packet is sent on.
•
The lowest-numbered IP address on a specific
interface. The address is used as the source for
all packets of the specified type regardless of
interface the packet is sent on.
