Foundry Switch and Router Installation and Configuration Guide
This completes the configuration for NetIron-A. The configuration for NetIron-B and C is very similar except for a
few issues.
•
IP sub-nets and IPX networks configured on NetIron-B and NetIron-C must be unique across the entire
network, except for the backbone port-based VLANs 5, 6, and 7 where the sub-net is the same but the IP
address must change.
•
There is no need to change the default priority of STP within VLAN 4.
•
There is no need to include a virtual router interface within VLAN 4.
•
The backbone VLAN between NetIron-B and NetIron-C must be the same at both ends and requires a new
VLAN ID. The VLAN ID for this port-based VLAN is VLAN 7.
Configuration for NetIron-B
Enter the following commands to configure NetIron-B.
